{"product_id":"malawi-ngabu-agate-33mm-22g","title":"Natural Hand-Polished Malawi Agate – 33 mm | Fortification banding, ghost banding, triangular nodule form","description":"\u003cp\u003eA geometrically striking single from the Ngabu deposit with a rare triangular fortification banding system — concentric triangles stack inward with remarkable precision, from deep burgundy-red outer bands through vivid sard-red and carnelian-orange mid-zones to a warm amber-orange inner band, converging on a small, smooth blue-grey chalcedony centre. A delicate lavender-white border frames the outer edge of the face. The triangular geometry of the banding mirrors the broader triangular form of the nodule itself. Ghost banding adds quiet depth in the outer zone. Directly sourced from Ngabu, Malawi and hand-polished by us in South Africa.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Origin:\u003c\/b\u003e Ngabu, Malawi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Face Size:\u003c\/b\u003e 33 mm (longest edge)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 33 × 26 × 22 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Weight:\u003c\/b\u003e 22 g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Treatment:\u003c\/b\u003e None\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Finish:\u003c\/b\u003e Hand-polished\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Grade:\u003c\/b\u003e Collector specimen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- Features:\u003c\/b\u003e Fortification banding, ghost banding, triangular nodule form\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e- SKU:\u003c\/b\u003e 000362\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Malawi agate specimen is a natural stone formed over millions of years.
