The soft sky-blue interior is framed by the rough tan and grey host rock exactly as it came out of the ground. Nothing here is cut or polished; the open face is a natural vug.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlue lace agate is a banded variety of chalcedony, microcrystalline quartz that forms in gas cavities in volcanic rock as silica-rich water deposits in fine layers. The gentle, cloud-like blue banding is what the stone is known for, and Malawi is one of the main sources for genuinely natural, undyed material. At Mohs 6.5 to 7 it is durable and stable to handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA raw geode like this suits an altar, a shelf, a desk, or a meditation space where its open blue cavity catches the light. Blue lace agate is traditionally associated with calm, gentle communication, and easing a busy mind. This is the exact piece pictured.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beyond Bohemian","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51124231897124,"sku":"IND-BLA-GEO-0007","price":87.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0768\/6107\/9588\/files\/blue-lace-agate-raw-geode-aa-grade-malawi-7-02.png?v=1784669085","url":"https:\/\/beyondbohemian.com\/products\/blue-lace-agate-raw-geode-aa-malawi-7","provider":"Beyond Bohemian","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
