Chocolate Condor Agate

Rich Chocolate Condor Agate with Orange Splashes

This is a polished Condor Agate with a chocolaty-brown face and a couple of bright orange spots on the sides. Please note that it looks a little darker in natural lighting, and you don't notice the fortification as much. But view it under lighting, and its natural beauty becomes apparent. Notice also the crystal pocket in the center - it has a small quartz crystal that extends into the center a little more than the others. Very nice! It's a little over 2" x 1 1/2" at its wider points, and about 30 mm thick. It weighs 83.5 grams, or 2.9 ounces. A beautiful little piece.

Mustard Condor Agate

Mustard-Colored Condor Agate

This is a polished yellow, kind of mustard-colored, Condor Agate. It is slightly darker than it looks in the photos. You notice the crystalline center and the more 'solid' coloring until you look closer. Then you see the fortification lines, and the faint red outline of the crystal center. It is 1 5/8" x 1" at its wider points, and 23 mm thick. It weighs 32.8 grams,or 1.1 ounces. (Note that the little white spec, originally thought to be in the stone, was actually just a spec of dust - sorry!). A pretty piece!

Condor Agate

Chocolate and Orange Condor Agate

This polished Condor Agate is another with a dark, rich chocolaty-brown face. But this one has orange banding toward the center. You really don't notice the beauty in this guy until you view him closely and under lighting. In natural light, it looks like just shades of a dark brown. But when you look closer, you see the coloring. Move him into the light, and the orange comes to life. It is about 1 1/4" x 1 1/4" and 16 mm thick. It weighs 38 grams, or 1.3 ounces.

Blue-Grey Condor Agate

Blue-Grey Condor Agate with Colorful Center

This is a very neat, polished Condor Agate. It is mostly a blue-grey translucent agate. But the beautiful center is a tiny crystalline pocket, surrounded by a faint yellow agate, surrounded again, mostly, by the band of orange! You don't notice the light fortification in natural lighting, and the colors aren't as bright, but they come to life in the light. It's approximately 2" x 1 1/2" and 21 mm thick. It weighs 70.9 grams, or 2.5 ounces.

Condor Agate

Condor Agate with Yellow and Orange Splash

This polished Condor Agate has a bright ring of orange that blends into the brown, with a splash of yellow color intruding toward the center. Viewing the photo caused me to look closer, where under light and (for me magnification), you suddenly see that the banding in the brown actually looks like thin green lines! And notice the one corner area where there is a 'cloud' (top area in the main photo) that makes the sweeping highlight over them. Really nice! It is about 1 3/8" x 1 1/8" and 20 mm thick. It weighs 37.2 grams, or 1.3 ounces. This is an awesome little Condor when you take the time to look close!
