Dendritic Agate 6x8mm Corner Drilled Table Cut Cube Bead - 15-16 Inch Australian "Boulder" Chrysoprase Turquoise beads found in IraqDendritic Agate is not banded like other Agates, and therefore is not an Agate in the strictest terms. Rather than banding, Dendritic Agate has branch to like inclusions of iron or manganese, primarily in black, within the golden tones of brown and yellow ochre of the stone. Dendritic Agate is known as the Stone of Plentitude, believed to bring abundance and fullness to all areas of life.
