Cotton Candy Agate Bracelet 001

Rare Cotton Candy Agate from Mexico

Set in sterling silver this bracelet is easily adjustable to fit most wrists.

This rare piece of Cotton Candy Agate comes from Mexico. It is a relatively newcomer to the lapidary scene, it has rapidly gained popularity as a distinctive, colorful pink or peach jasper, with light pink and cream colored chalcedony. The white cloud-like breccia is what gives this stone its savory name.

Agate is the name given to numerous varieties of banded Chalcedony, a mineral of the Quartz family. Its name comes from the Achetes River in Sicily, where Agates were first found. Usually banded in layers, or stripes, some varieties have “eye” markings, or specks of color. Called the earth rainbow, the concentric bands of Agate form in nearly every color the earth can produce, including a colorless form.

The agate stone provides strength, emotional stability, and a sense of peace and calm.
