{"product_id":"agate-crystal-vases-brazil","title":"Agate Crystal Vases | Brazil","description":"\u003cp\u003eAgate crystal vases from Minas Gerais, Brazil, cut from natural banded agate and hollowed into functional flower vessels. Each vase is a solid block of A grade agate, cut so the concentric banding is exposed across the face, with a crystalline quartz center where the original cavity finished filling. Colours run through greys, blues, and soft earth tones. A removable plastic tube insert holds the water, so the stone never sits wet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAgate is a banded chalcedony, a microcrystalline form of quartz that grew in layers inside gas pockets in volcanic rock. Each band marks a pulse of silica-rich fluid, so the pattern is a record of how the cavity filled over time. Minas Gerais is the most important agate region in the world, and the material there is known for wide, well-defined banding. At Mohs 6.5 to 7 it is hard and takes a high finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese suit a mantel, a bookshelf, a console, or a room where a single graphic object does the work. Agate is traditionally associated with grounding and steadiness. Each vase is hand selected and photographed in house.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beyond Bohemian","offers":[{"title":"(1 Piece) 2-3 Pounds","offer_id":51079213219876,"sku":"BUL-AGA-VAS-0001","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0768\/6107\/9588\/files\/agate-crystal-vase-a-grade-brazil-01_70ceda24-9f5a-4602-993a-5d43de158dfc.png?v=1784327350","url":"https:\/\/beyondbohemian.com\/products\/agate-crystal-vases-brazil","provider":"Beyond Bohemian","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
