You are here: Home > dZi & other Ancient, Antique & Rare Beads > Agates (Undecorated)


Here you will find a selection of ancient and antique agate beads from the Himalayan regions and beyond. These beads have not been decorated, however, various methods were used in antiquity to alter the colour or darken the stone. These treatments often made the crystalline layers or banding more prominent and thus enhanced the appearance of eyes and stripes. This in turn made the beads more desirable for adornment and for their use as amulets.
