These unique faceted teardrops are made from a multi-colored natural Agate. They have been selected for their unique patterns of clear to grey Agate within a frame of white Agate. Occasionally, you will also see tiny spots of Druse. As you can see in the picture, some drops also have hints of red or green in the agate material. All coloration is natural. Druse spots (tiny voids filled with natural crystals) can appear anywhere on the teardrops, including on edges. The drilled hole at the top point of the teardrop may not be level across the top - please account for this possibility (wire wrapping, for example). Hole openings may also have a notched appearance. Sold individually and priced by the carat, sizes are given for reference; size ranges overlap because some drops are thinner/thicker than others.
