Please note that bead size and quantity per strand may vary slightly due to the natural material and handmade measuring process.
The round shape keeps the focus on the Purple color and natural character of Agate. The larger scale gives the strand more presence, so it can stand alone or frame a focal pendant without looking too busy. The polished finish keeps the beads smooth and easy to combine with other jewelry components.
Agate is valued in beadwork for its layered bands, cloudy areas, and natural pattern shifts, so it rarely looks flat even in a simple strand. Use dyed material when a design calls for a more deliberate color effect than the natural stone would usually provide.
