{"product_id":"abz0625-031","title":"Striped Agate Beads Strand","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Description:\u003c\/strong\u003e Discover the captivating beauty of ancient beads with striking contrast. Agate, a variety of chalcedony, is formed through the layering of opal, quartz, and chalcedony within the cavities of igneous or sedimentary rocks. Historically cherished as adornments and regarded as one of the Seven Treasures in Buddhism, agate carries symbolic meanings of \"harmony,\" \"coexistence,\" and \"health,\" making it a popular choice as a power stone today. Known for its distinct vertical stripes, agate is differentiated from non-striped chalcedony. Particularly sought after are agates with clear banding, especially those featuring a predominantly black base, which remain a favorite in accessories. This strand offers a striking top contrast and showcases a range of colors from amber-like reddish-brown to translucent milky white. Its lightweight nature makes it ideal for reworking into unique jewelry pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEstimated Production Era:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1000 years ago\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unknown\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Agate\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBead Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Largest: 2.3cm x 0.4cm; Smallest: 0.4cm x 0.4cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e Total Length: 62cm (Bead Portion: 47cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecial Notes:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWhile it can be worn as a necklace, please note that the beads are strung with a simple cord, and there is no guarantee of its strength.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDue to its antique nature, the product may have scratches, cracks, chips, or stains.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImages are for illustrative purposes only.
