I was hunting for precious stones in an old river when I came across a white agate
Theophrastus discovered the white agate stone in a river in the 4th century. Bowls and dishes made of white agate stone were very popular during the Byzantine Empire (Eastern Rome - Constantinople) and collecting these bowls was popular among wealthy families in Europe during the Renaissance period, which today are in many museums such as the Louvre in France. These containers or bowls made of white agate are very important and are kept.
Agate is a semi-precious stone. This gem is one of the minerals that consists of several chemical elements.
One of the characteristics of white agate is its fine grain and bright color.
The types of texture of this gem are semi-transparent, matte and with glass polish.
From three thousand years ago, the Egyptians used the properties of agate stone to make beads, rings and decorate dishes...
Due to the properties of agate stone, this stone was used a lot in the past and it is still very popular today, and the best property of agate stone is its spiritual and spiritual impact, which is mentioned in ancient traditions.
Only by examining in a collection that more than three thousand bowls of agate gemstones collected by the king of Pontus, Bahram; You can understand how valuable this stone is and in the past it was given a lot of attention and even rich families wanted to collect it.
The first polishing and cutting of this gem happened in 1548 AD, which is mentioned in historical texts, however, the cutting of gems of this gem officially started at the beginning of the 16th century in Germany.
