Agate is a beautiful stone and comes in many colours and shapes! For example, we have small cuddly stones but also beautiful bookends in our range. Why not take a look at the website to see the many Various agate products. You often see brightly coloured agates for sale in shops. These are always dyed. Sometimes this can look really lovely if you’re specifically looking for a particular colour. The agates are left in a dye bath for a long time, during which the porous parts of the stone absorb the desired colour.
Agate is a collective term for all kinds of chalcedony with bands of colour. Strictly speaking, moss agate and tree agate do not belong to the agate family, as they do not contain any bands of colour. However, we still classify these two under the heading ‘agate’.
The name ‘agate’ comes from the River Achetes in Sicily, where the stone used to be found. Agates were also used by the ancient Egyptians and in jewellery in ancient India.
Agate is known for having a lower frequency – that is, a lower vibration – than most other stones. This makes agate a grounding and stabilising stone. The stone can therefore support you when you feel a bit unsteady, as if you’re not quite standing firmly on your own two feet and could do with a bit of a helping hand. Grounding helps you regain a firm footing, which often means you’ll find the courage to make choices or voice your opinion, even though you might usually find that very difficult.
Agate also has calming and balancing properties. This makes it a very pleasant stone to carry with you if you are feeling restless or even experiencing symptoms of burnout. You will feel yourself becoming calmer, and your body and mind will regain their balance.
Do you find it difficult to set yourself goals? Agate can help you with this, so that your goals become achievable.
As well as the general properties of agate, each variety also has its own specific properties. We’d like to tell you more about the spiritual aspects of these stones. We draw our information from the wonderful and comprehensive book ‘The Wisdom of Stones’ by Robert Simmons & Naisha Ahsian. Highly recommended if you’re interested in how stones work!

Furthermore, this beautiful light blue stone has a gentle effect on the throat chakra. The stone works slowly and gradually, so don’t expect immediate change. But it will certainly help you persevere! Because the stone has such a beneficial effect on the throat chakra, it can beautifully support you in expressing your thoughts and emotions clearly and lovingly. It also helps you when you can’t stop talking or when you say things without thinking about the consequences. The stone helps you to look calmly and openly at ideas about the importance of your contribution to the world.

Tree agate is a lovely stone to carry with you when you are engaged in inner work. It helps to strengthen you and supports you in the daily steps needed to achieve the desired insights or behavioural changes. You’ll gain an understanding of which self-imposed limitations and patterns are holding you back or have led to your experiences. The stone purifies your energy field and helps you recognise the ‘positive’ lessons within ‘negative’ experiences.

It helps you to ground yourself and improves concentration and perseverance. It promotes contact with elemental and nature spirits and supports spiritual insights.
