According to textual research, the first place to find agate was near the Achates River on Sicily, so the name evolved into the English Agate. There is a saying that the Chinese name of agate is because the rough shape of agate is similar to horse brain, so it is called agate. .
Chalcedony with a striped or banded structure is called agate. The common ones are stripes with multiple colors or stripes with a single color and off-white. Most of the agates on the market are dyed because of the price of agate. Not high, dyeing makes the color more beautiful and easy to match, so there is no need to investigate whether the agate is dyed.
The bright red to brownish red chalcedony is called red agate, while the yellowish red to reddish brown agate is called brown agate. Although the two agates have different names, they are not clearly distinguished because the brownish red agate is quite common. It does not have to be classified as red agate or brown agate. The red agate is colored because it contains iron. Most of the red agate or brown agate can be found to be linear when looking at the light, but on the whole, the striped structure is not like striped agate. So obvious.
The agate with black and white stripes is called onyx, and the red and white stripes are called sardonyx. Generally speaking, there are few pure black agates. Most of the black agates are dyed with onyx. , The striped structure of onyx can be found through strong light.
In addition, there are varieties such as moss agate and fire agate, which are very different in color and shape.
