Dendritic agate is a whitish-gray or colorless chalcedony with tree- or fern-like markings known as dendrites. The varietal name agate is used for this gem even though it does not exhibit the banding that is typical of agate.

The dendrites in dendritic agate are iron or manganese inclusions and are usually brown or black in color. Though they appear organic due to their fern-like structure, they are actually inorganic; they are traces of iron or manganese from neighboring rock that crystallize after seeping through fine surface fractures in the agate.

You will receive the same quality as you see in my pictures, I always send from the same batch. I will randomly select one strand. As the colour & size can vary slightly, please do not request for one particular strand. You can buy the whole batch to ensure you will get the best ones.
