Black Agate Druzy

Black Agate Druzy is thought to enhance creativity and strengthen the mind. Associated with calm and protection, Black Agate Druzy ranges in color between pure jet-black and charcoal gray. Deep in the heart of each Black Agate Druzy gemstone are clear quartz crystals that reflect the color of the surrounding stone. This “swimming pool effect” effect causes the crystals to appear gray or black. Most Black Agate Druzy comes from Brazil and has a rough-cut, faintly shimmery texture.

Black Agate is a dark and mysterious jet-black crystal that is associated with calm and inner strength. Found primarily in Africa and Brazil, each unique Black Agate stone may feature natural patterns created by bands of colors. These colors include stark white, glowing cream or lemon yellow, ember-orange, or vibrant ice-blue. Black Agates that have no pattern are an intense black, polished to a gleaming shine.
