Moss Agate Tumble Stone

POLISHED + NATURAL + TUMBLED

A gorgeous stone, moss agate, is one of the many green gemstones that make a fantastic addition to any collection. It has a beautiful marbled green effect on its surface.

Moss agate can be clear or milky white, with green dendritic inclusions that resemble moss. The colors are formed due to trace amounts of metal present as an impurity, such as chrome or iron. The metals can make different colors depending on their valence (oxidation state). Despite its name, moss agate does not contain organic matter and is usually formed from weathered volcanic rocks.

Tumbled stones are pieces of rock and different minerals that have been tumbled to produce smooth rounded and highly polished stones. The process begins by placing rough stones of a similar size into a rock tumbler. The barrel is then filled with water, sand, coarse grit and various polishing agents to create a smooth surface on the polished gemstone.

Tumbled stones can be used in many ways - lucky stones, vase filler, decorations, ground cover, accents in potted plants, game markers, making jewelry and much more...

These stones are sold individually and in 1LB Bags.

Why we love these: No two moss agate stones are the same, making each and every one unique.
