This volcano agate tower features dramatic banding with layers of earthy tan, cream, smoky gray, and translucent chalcedony, accented by striking dark inclusions and a vivid green crystalline band running through the center of the stone. Under ultraviolet light, the green crystalline areas display noticeable UV reactivity, adding an additional visual dimension to this already striking piece. The contrasting layers create a bold, geological appearance reminiscent of volcanic flow and mineral deposition. Volcano agate is a form of banded agate valued for its layered structure, depth, and natural visual movement.
