Moss-Agate: Also known as Mocha Stone. A semi precious stone and a form of chalcedonay. The colours are from included minerals, which are oxides from maganese or iron. So despite it's name their is no organic matter in the stones.

Dan Says: "I have not seen another moss agate necklace made up of so many stones, each stone is different, each a different 'picture', but they blend so well."
