Malawi Agate – 46 mm | Flow Channel

A single from the Ngabu deposit with a sard-red to deep burgundy palette. The bands pinch inward at four points to create sharp, geometric angular edges around a pale grey-lavender micro-crystalline centre — an unusual star-form inner zone rare in Ngabu material. A flow channel of white quartz traces the upper edge of the inner zone, and an amber-orange transition band separates the deep sard-red outer banding from the white inner border. Scalloped band edges and ghost banding are present. Directly sourced from Ngabu, Malawi and hand-polished by us in South Africa.
