Lace Agate Pendants

Crazy lace agate is also known as Mexican agate. It is typically a white stone, opaque in nature and patterned like a multicolored cloth. At one time, this type of agate was worn to please the gods, and to enhance courage. Now, it makes a beautiful pendant. Colors vary among butterscotch, tan, brown, orange, creams and dark grey. Some lace agate pendants have translucent sections. In many cases, these are used in mini collar style necklaces or fans. By placing several of these pieces together in a fan style, you can truly see the varying color and texture of this unusual stone. Crazy Lace pendants are also available in some cases, the stone looks its best in flat styles because you get the full effect of this multi-tonal stone. If you are interested in a more facted look, you should consider Rose Quartz and Amethyst which look amazing when cut as a faceted gemstone.
