Malawi Agate – 37 mm | Floater

A single from the Ngabu deposit with a complete, concentric fortification banding system spanning seven distinct colour zones — deep blue-grey outer border through navy, lavender-purple, white, golden-yellow and orange to a sard-red centre — an inverse colour progression rare in Ngabu material. Suspended in the lavender inner zone is a rectangular floater: a fully self-contained banded inclusion with its own sard-red and white banding, detached from the outer system. Ghost banding and high translucency are present. Directly sourced from Ngabu, Malawi and hand-polished by us in South Africa.
