Agate with fluid inclusions
Rare Agate specimens with fluid inclusions - these are commonly sold as enhydro Agate.
What is a fluid inclusion? A small cavity filled with water or other liquid inside a stone or crystal piece. It may have a bubble or two, or some other material inside.
This is different from an enhydro specimen - which is a rock with porous walls into which water may have seeped recently. Fluid inclusions are inside less porous minerals, and are more likely to be old.
The best way to view these inclusions is to place the crystal directly in front of a bright light source and move it around very slowly.
- #1 - 85.3x58.5x44.2MM - a nice large bubble is visible within the liquid inside this piece, making it a two phase inclusion (liquid and gas) It is incredibly difficult to photograph, unfortunately. Happy to send a video over if you'd like one - get in touch. This piece is from Indonesia; a face has been cut into the nodule and polished, to give you a window to view the insides. When backlit, the inclusion is visible.

Lovely specimen; I can see the inclusion moving when I hold it up to the light and move it. Very happy!
