Polished agate from Brazil is especially prized for its vivid banding and depth of colour, echoing the treasures found in both private and public collections the world over. This mounted agate slice recalls the tradition of incorporating semi-precious stones into decorative arts, a practice popularised throughout the 19th and 20th centuries.
