black agate with silver leaf

Semi-precious stone · Brazil

Black and gray agate slices joined by silver joints: the photo of the black agate with silver leaf slab shows that mosaic. It goes on the pieces that are seen up close: the accent wall, the front of a bar or the vanity.

It is also known as Black Agate + Silver Leaf.

What Black Agate with Silver Leaf looks like

Round slices of black and gray agate form, in the photo of the slab, a mosaic of gray and white rings joined by silver joints. On the black background, the white of the rings and the silver of the joints build a high contrast. The photo shows the glossy polish of this slab. From area to area, the layout of slices changes moderately. Since each panel is assembled by hand, the one in your order is chosen with photos of the available slabs.

Questions about Black Agate with Silver Leaf

Is the slab a single stone?

No: it is handcrafted work. Pieces of natural agate are joined with resin on a backing, and the result is a mosaic of pieces. If you see it written Black Agate + Silver Leaf, it is the same panel with silver joints.

How is it different from Blue Agate with Gold Leaf?

Both join slices with colored joints; the rest changes. In its photo, Blue Agate with Gold Leaf carries large blue agate slices with gold joints. In this slab the slices are black and gray, with gray and white rings and silver joints: the whole stays dark.

Can you put light behind it?

It depends on the real slab. Agate can be backlit when the slab allows it: in the photo, the light rings on a black background make it possible, not certain. One precaution only: the source cannot give direct heat to the resin.

How do you care for a slab with resin?

To clean it, a soft cloth dampened with water and nothing else: no solvents or abrasive cleaners on this slab. On tables, trivets under anything hot. Its place is indoors: floor and outdoors are out because of the resin.

How does the slab reach my country?

We ship to any country, with the stone's documents of origin and its CE certification. On the shipping page we explain how it reaches each region.
