NECKLACE WITH MEXICAN AGATE.
Decorative Antiques - Miscellaneous
Reference: Z5806
Necklace with Mexican agate plates. Necklace made with cords in different shades that are used to arrange and highlight the beads it is made of: flat circular discs alternate with dark spherical beads, highlighting the lines of the former; in front there is a triangular piece, in which the white and transparent areas alternate with red, yellow, white, etc. areas. Agate has been a common stone throughout history due to the properties attributed to it (the Egyptian one was effective against the bites of certain animals, the stone in general provided longevity in other cultures, etc.) and for its attractiveness (often used both in sculptures and in Egyptian mummies for the eyes, carved to create notable pieces such as the Valencia Chalice or the cameos of Ancient Rome, etc.).
