{"product_id":"malawi-agate-56mm-000490","title":"Natural Hand-Polished Malawi Agate – 56 mm | Scalloped banding","description":"\u003cp\u003eA well-formed specimen from the Ngabu deposit. The face presents a striking arrowhead form framed by tight concentric bands of deep carnelian-red and burnt sienna that transition outward through warm amber and golden-honey tones. Banding is clean and well-separated throughout, with a strong warm-cool contrast between the carnelian bands and the cool chalcedony centre. The lower bands carry a distinct scalloped edge character. A tiny open vug sits at the centre of the chalcedony field. Directly sourced from Ngabu, Malawi and hand-polished by us in South Africa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif;\"\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif;\"\u003e- Origin: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif;\"\u003eNgabu, Malawi\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- Face Size: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif;\"\u003e56 mm (longest edge)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 56 × 27 × 32 mm \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 52 g \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Treatment:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-polished\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Grade:\u003c\/strong\u003e Collector specimen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e Scalloped banding, vug\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e- SKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e 000490\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; line-height: normal;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif;\"\u003eEach Malawi agate specimen is a natural stone formed over millions of years.
