Black Banded Agate 6mm Bracelet

Traditionally worn for protection, grounding, stability and inner strength, every bead displays its own naturally individual pattern.

What Is Black Banded Agate?

Black banded agate is a variety of chalcedony composed primarily of microscopic quartz. Its characteristic stripes develop through successive layers of silica deposited inside rock cavities. According to GIA, agate is a banded variety of chalcedony, with its visible patterns influenced by variations in structure, porosity and microscopic inclusions.

The bracelet shown contains predominantly glossy black beads accompanied by striking white, grey and brown curved bands. Pattern, shade and band placement naturally vary between beads, making every bracelet visually unique.
