Here are more crystal pendants this time in as agate slice pendant, a hand pendant or dragon claw pendant settings. We also have similar idea as dragons click here. 

• Blue agate slice pendants and they have lovely patterns.
• The colour is distinctive because … agate does not grow in this colour – it has been coloured in Brazil.
• Blue is also the one colour that does not fade in the sun so we will never sell pink agate pendants as that does fade easily.

We enjoyed watching the cutting, polished and colouring of agate when we were in Brazil. Fascinating to know the final step would turn them in to agate slice pendants.

The hand and claws are not strongly set so can dislodge if pulled on. Some glue will fix – ask if you want me to do it.

• It brings spiritual courage and steadfastness.
