ARIZONA AGATES

Included here are examples of agates collected from various locations in Arizona. Almost all  I collected myself, except for a couple that were given to me from friends.

My favorite colors are lavenders and pinks when I can find them, and my favorite type of agate is fortification or banded agate.  I do like moss, tube, plume, & sagenite also.

I have tried to represent the colors of the agates as accurately as possible. The unpolished ones are shown wet, and where I have had to adjust the colors to correct for bad lighting or shiny surfaces, I kept them as faithful to the originals as I possibly could
