Description
Aztec Agate from Durango Mexico. We only bought a few pounds of this beautiful agate.
When we first purchased the rough we weren’t particularly impressed so it went immediately into storage.
We eventually got around to cutting it and we were pleasantly surprised.
There are some nice red, pink, yellow and orange colors in this rock. Each rock is quite different from each other.
If we ever get the opportunity to get more of this amazing material it will definitely be on our shopping

Aztec Agate rough rock #3
This beautiful red piece of Aztec Agate was quite thin so we were only able to cut a few small slabs. While it was mostly red, there were also some nice patterns and colors inside.
