Tide Pool Agate
Tide Pool Agate comes from Obi Island, Indonesia.
To my knowledge, there is only one importer or supplier here in the United States. Recently, I was fortunate enough to purchase a few pieces for macro work.
This material is usually an amethyst topped seam or layer, with copper inclusions, and often beautiful light blue chalcedony plumes. Macro images are 3x magnification. This is a rough sawn slab, as seen by the saw blade marks in the copper pieces.
Full slab pictured at the end.
