Cornish 'Agate' specimens

An unusual material sold as Cornish Agate - however, it is typically a variety of things, from a banded Agate, to a brecciated or layered Quartz.

In Cornwall, where it is found, it is locally known as 'Cornish Agate', so this is what I'll call it!

I have quite a few different pieces in stock, including rough, tumbled, and polished pieces.

  • #1 - 45x43x7MM - a cut piece with one polished and one rough side. It's a nice mixed up piece with fibrous layers of a creamy-white material.
  • #2 - 47.6x36.6x11.2MM - a cut pebble with one rough side and one polished side - a mixture of browns, red, and creams.
  • #3 - 48.5x45x18.2MM - a cut pebble with one rough side and one polished side - a mixture of browns and creams.
  • #4 - 44.8x25.2x20.3MM - a tumble polished piece with a mixture of cream and brown colours.
  • #5 - 52x38x10.8MM - a cut piece with one polished and one rough side. A mixed up piece with layers of a creamy-white material.
  • #6 - 50x44x9MM - a cut piece with one polished and one rough side. A mixed up piece with layers of a creamy-white material.
  • #7 - 51x43x15.5MM- a cut pebble with one rough side and one polished side - a mixture of browns and creams.
  • #8 - 41x35x9MM - a cut pebble with one rough side and one polished side - a mixture of browns and creams.
  • #9 - 57x36.4x29MM - a rough pebble, water rounded. This could either be tumbled or cut into slices. A nice mix of creams, purples, and browns is visible from the outside.
  • #10 - 43.5x29.6x13.8MM - A tumbled piece with a nice red-brown colour and plenty of mixed up creams and whites.
  • #11 - 37.2x37.2x5.3MM  - a cut pebble with one rough side and one polished side - a mixture of browns and creams.
  • #12 - 39.7x27.3x19MM - A tumbled piece with a nice red-brown colour and plenty of mixed up creams and whites.
  • #13 - 104x60x35MM - an outstanding piece consisting of a pebble sliced in half with the two internal sides polished. Lots to look at here - brecciated Quartz, Chalcedony, sagenitic Agate - it has areas of grey, brown, red, purple and a creamy white.
