The Art of Making Agate Stone Jewelry

I create each piece of natural Agate jewelry by collecting my own beach stone Agates on the Olympic Peninsula and Agates down in Lewis County, which can vary in different colors and patterns. I find banded Agate, Carnelian Agate and Moss Agate. I take the Agate home where I cut and polish it. After polishing the Agate, I craft a design for a unique piece of jewelry. Then begins the metalsmithing process of hand sawing, soldering, texturing, stone setting, oxidizing and more. Occasionally I also wire wrap Agates into pendant necklaces. I work mainly with sterling silver and stainless steel. It's a time intensive process to ensure that your jewelry is high quality and long-lasting.

About Agate

Agate is a variety of Chalcedony, a type of micro-crystalline Quartz, and has a hardness of 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale, making it a very durable semi-precious stone for jewelry. Agate can be found in an array of colors and patterns of bands and orbs, making each one unique. It's found in areas with volcanic activity so it is fairly abundant in Washington State. Agate is associated with the Earth element, bringing emotional stability and confidence to the wearer, and is the perfect secondary birthstone for the month of May.
