FAQ

When it comes to stones and crystals, the meaning of Agate refers to numerous varieties of banded chalcedony, a mineral of the quartz family.

The color of Blue Lace Agate results from ‘Rayleigh scattering.’ We see the hue blue because of a quantum interaction between atoms that scatters light, which causes it to appear that way. When photons (light) strike a piece of Blue Lace Agate, the light causes atoms to align in a specific manner that ‘sends out’ blue light in the direction of our eyes. Therefore, Blue Lace Agate’s blue hue will not fade over time. This natural effect differentiates Blue Lace Agate from other agate stones that may contain pigment or have been dyed.
