The contrast is sharp and the pattern is specific to this stone and no other. At the center, a natural druzy pocket where fine crystals formed, partially filled now with a cluster of silver spheres that carry the eye into the interior rather than away from it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is an agate slice from Brazil, where agate geodes form in a range of sizes and interior patterns. This one was chosen for the sharpness of its banding and the depth of its color contrast, qualities that photographs hint at and the stone itself delivers fully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe backing has been hand-scalloped to follow the natural elongated shape of the geode, with a textured surface and a deliberate dark patina that deepens the contrast between the frame and the stone's pale and dark interior. Silver spheres travel around the scalloped perimeter and up onto the handmade bail, tying the composition together without interrupting it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHallmarked Blue Piranha and .925. The pendant measures 2¼ inches (5.7 cm) long from the top of the bail to the bottom of the pendant, and 1 inch (2.5 cm) wide. Weight is 11.5 grams. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach pendant is available without a chain, so you may use your own if you prefer. If you want to add a chain, I offer different lengths and styles. Every chain comes with a 2-inch extender so you can vary the length. Please choose your chain from the options at checkout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour purchase arrives gift boxed, presented in a soft pouch with a story card.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood for: a gift for the woman who finds more in black and white than most people find in color. A birthday for the collector who wears statement pieces that don't need to shout. For the nature enthusiast who likes her adornments to show their work. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eQuestions?

The patterns vary from stone to stone — no two geodes produce the same interior — and most have a central druzy pocket where fine crystals formed as the geode developed. Agate is a hard, durable chalcedony that takes a high polish and is found worldwide, but Brazilian agate geodes are particularly prized for the range and clarity of their banding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"pendant","offer_id":53517106544954,"sku":null,"price":245.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"add popcorn chain 16\" [+$40]","offer_id":53517106577722,"sku":null,"price":285.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"add popcorn chain 18\"  [+$45]","offer_id":53517106610490,"sku":null,"price":290.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"add wheat chain 16\"  [+$65]","offer_id":53517106643258,"sku":null,"price":310.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"add wheat chain 18\"  [+$70]","offer_id":53517106676026,"sku":null,"price":315.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"add rope chain 30\"  [+$90]","offer_id":53517106708794,"sku":null,"price":335.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0787\/3822\/7514\/files\/geode04-01-24.jpg?v=1779821744","url":"https:\/\/bluepiranhajewelry.com\/products\/gray-agate-geode-pendant-sterling-silver-boho-necklace-artisan-jewelry-natural-cabochon-gem-lover","provider":"Blue Piranha Jewelry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
