Druzy Agate features a surface of tiny, sparkling quartz crystals that form naturally on the surface of agate. This stone is valued for its unique texture and shimmering appearance, making it a popular choice for statement jewelry. Dakota Stones offers druzy agate in a range of natural hues, with each bead displaying slight variations in crystal formation. Its moderate hardness and distinctive look make it suitable for both focal and accent pieces, though designers should consider the delicate nature of the druzy surface during design and wear.
