What is Moss Agate?

Moss Agate is a precious gemstone popular for its milky white base and green dendritic inclusions that are created by oxidation of minerals. Many brides are attracted to this stone because it has a personal identity and ancient values. The name of this gemstone originated from the Arabian City of Mocha in Yemen.

Moss Agates are formed in volcanic areas with water that is rich in silica and it flows between the igneous rocks. On the cavities of rocks, silica gel is formed that later cools down and crystallizes to form quartz micro-crystals. With passing time, the gel layers become thick and absorb the impurities. As concentration of impurities increases, the color banding is formed resulting in formation of splendid gemstones.

In the 18th century in Europe, moss agate was believed to bring good luck and fortune. People at that time used to place them in their homes to attract wealth and prosperity. Moreover, farmers used to wear them to let their crops grow well because they believed that the green inclusions on the stones are signs of profitable harvests.

Moss Agate is not only associated with good fortune, it also has spiritual value that makes it a unique gemstone. It is believed that moss agate is an amulet that boosts tranquillity and helps create emotional balance. The one who wears it gains a balanced heart chakra and fosters love and abundance. Due to these qualities it is the perfect choice for wedding rings because it promises lifelong partnership.
