Scenic Moss Agate Cabochon — Indonesia, 7 g

Description

This polished scenic moss agate is a flat‑backed half‑dome cabochon showing a translucent cream to pale‑beige chalcedony body with brown–green dendritic ‘moss’ inclusions and gentle curved banding visible through the face. The cabochon measures 3.5 × 2.3 × 0.4 cm and weighs 7 g, with a rounded profile ideal for setting or handling. Origin is Indonesia; the piece presents stable, internally visible dendritic patterns that give the stone its scenic character. Agate is a banded form of chalcedony, a microcrystalline variety of quartz (SiO2). Dendritic or “moss” inclusions in such material are common features that form striking, branching patterns within the chalcedony.
