Natural Dendritic Agate 125.9ct 55mm Teardrop Cabochon

This broad teardrop cabochon is unusual among dendritic agates in that the blue-grey chalcedony dominates the entire face, giving it the character of a soft, cool-toned stone with only modest dendritic detail. The body is a quiet blue-grey-white throughout, with fine dendritic formations scattered lightly rather than clustered at the edges - a spray of small ferns on the right, a few scattered dots near the center, and light fern clusters near the outer margin. A natural fracture line runs along the left side, visible under the polish. The overall impression is quiet and restrained: a large blue-grey teardrop with dendritic whispers rather than a dominant ink-landscape pattern.

Brazilian dendritic agate is well known for this kind of chalcedony base with organic inclusions, and pieces where the chalcedony tone is stronger than the dendrite coverage are common within any parcel. The dendrites are natural and untreated. The pear/teardrop outline at 55mm makes this a practical choice for a large pendant drop or focal piece in a wire wrap, where the teardrop silhouette is naturally flattering.
