Chinese Hongshan Carved Water Agate
Beautifully and intricately carved water agate with flowers, plants and a lizard like creature. Over 3000 years ago, agate was used by the ancient Egyptians to carry water, make rings and other ornaments for their bodies and temples. Water agate is a rare form of agate that has the ability to absorb water, or in vary rare cases, actually contains trapped water that is perhaps millions of years old. This piece replicates the painstakingly carved water agates of the Far East. Learn More$48.00
