Flower agate is a pale pink chalcedony with white crystalline inclusions that look like small flowers or bursts blooming inside the stone. It's a relatively new find from Madagascar.
It is one of the most diverse and widely collected mineral groups, with dozens of named varieties based on color, pattern, and origin.
Hand-selected from Analamanga, Madagascar. Worth knowing: a lot of the flower agate on the market is dyed. What we carry is natural and untreated.
Those who work with flower agate often turn to it for opening to connection, with yourself and others, working through difficult feelings at your own pace, and clarifying what you actually want. It's traditionally linked to the heart and root chakras. If that resonates, keep it nearby during quiet moments or by the bed for rest. How you use it is up to you.
These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
Offered as a starting point for your own practice.
Flower Agate sits at 6.5-7 on the Mohs scale, about as hard as glass, so it handles daily use but will scratch against harder stones. Keep chemical cleaners away from it; they can etch the surface.

AA grade indicates clearly visible and well-formed floral inclusions, good translucency in the chalcedony base, a quality hand polish, and minimal surface chips or fractures. Grades reflect visual quality within a batch. A is standard, with typical inclusions. AA shows stronger color, cleaner surfaces and tighter sizing. AAA is the top 10 to 15 percent of a batch.
