Ocean Agate

Legend - Given its name, not only because of its orbicular patterns and appearance, but because it can only be gathered at low tide.  Also called the “Moon Gem” because of the resemblance of the orbs to craters on the moon.

Properties - A very protective stone.  Believed to sooth and heal emotions bringing peace of mind.

Description - Ocean Agate beads (also called Ocean Jasper beads) are a mixed range of subtle colours including browns, greens, creams and rusts.  Sold as temporary strung 40cm (approx) strands.
