Agate gemstones are created between the pockets of volcanic rocks and the flow of lava when the cracks between them are filled with silica deposits. The colors are naturally produced by the patterns of the filling which begin at the center of the rock and radiate out, forming rings. These gemstones are curated in the city of Jaipur, which is rich of all kinds of natural stones. To make this impressive tea light holder, extremely proficient artisans first cut the stones by freehand. Then, it is polished to help the true textures emerge and finished off with a brush of gold for the royal shine. To produce such pieces by hand, the skills required are passed down through generations and practiced for years to achieve such precision. Did you know?

This particular piece boasts shades of grey and you can find more shades to choose from in the Soorbhi collection.
