Moss Agate

Moss agate is a fascinating type of chalcedony that gets its name from the moss-like patterns that can be seen throughout the stone. These patterns are formed by manganese or iron oxide inclusions that create dendritic shapes resembling moss or tree branches. Moss agate is found in a variety of colors, including green, white, red, yellow, and gray, and is often translucent with a waxy luster.
