Lot Small Natural Grape Agate Crystals 40g

A generous collection of small botryoidal agate crystals in dusty lavender-purple, spanning a wide range of individual piece sizes and forms. The lot contains a high number of individual pieces - most are single spheres or very small clusters of two to three globes, each with the characteristic matte-to-silky surface of botryoidal agate. The colour is a consistent muted lavender with some variation toward grey-purple, and a few notably darker teal-tinged pieces are mixed in. One distinctly bright teal-green piece stands out among the predominantly purple material. The tiny individual spheres have a rounded, pebble-like quality.

Grape agate is a botryoidal variety of chalcedony found in Sulawesi, Indonesia, where it forms in rounded grape-like clusters in volcanic cavities. The material is natural and untreated. This lot is sold by weight (40g) and contains a large number of small pieces, making it practical for craft and jewellery applications where small botryoidal shapes are desired - loose specimen sorting, mixed mineral displays, or small-scale art projects. Agate has a hardness of 7, making it durable.
