Orange and Red Chinese order Fighting Blood Agate, Xuanhua Hebei 11

For more than 3,000 years ancient warriors sought out red agates both to protect and empower themselves. Today, these red agates from China are still cherished for their symbolic associations—with desire, wellness, and passion—but even more so for the variety and intensity of their colors. These range from bright red to sunset red, from vivid green to royal blue, from deep purple to soft yellow, from bright gold to earthy brown, and everything in between. Often showing clear, tight bands or possessing superior chromatography, these agates are getting harder and harder to find. China has cracked down on their mining even as the agates remain highly desirable among the Chinese, who have disposable income to acquire and collect the agates. Agates without cracks and showing a good polish are the most sought after of Chinese Fighting Blood Agates, and order this is an excellent example. This half nodule measures approximately 3 1/2” x 3” x 1 1/4” and weighs 10.4 ounces. Free US shipping only.
