What is Crazy Lace Agate?

Scientifically, Crazy Lace Agate is a banded variety of chalcedony, which is a microcrystalline form of quartz. It forms when mineral-rich silica solutions slowly fill cavities in volcanic rock. Over time, layers of silica deposit in patterns influenced by trace minerals such as iron, aluminum, and manganese, giving the stone its warm and swirling tones.

This process, spanning millions of years, results in the lace-like appearance that makes Crazy Lace Agate so unique and loved by collectors worldwide. Most high-quality Crazy Lace Agate is found in northern Mexico, where its vivid colour combinations and intricate patterns have earned it global recognition.

Scientific Summary

• Mineral Family: Quartz (Chalcedony variety)
