Antique Rare 27.9mm Tabular Hexagonal Banded Agate Chung Agate Bead

Rare 27.9mm Tabular Hexagonal Banded Agate Chung Dzi Bead. This unique collectible features a chunky, multi-faceted geometric bicone carved from a rare olive-green and warm sage chalcedony matrix. The stone exhibits intricate, wavy chevron and parallel fortification banding, accented by small, natural dark carbon mineral inclusions trapped deep within the crystalline layers. Showing authentic ancient character with smooth, hand-polished facets and gentle edge-wear, this bead is a standout piece for curated collections or high-end statement jewelry

This magnificent collectible features an expertly faceted tabular hexagonal bicone structure carved from premium banded agate. The bead is defined by its incredibly clean, bold zoning: one half is a solid, nearly opaque dark chocolate brown, which abruptly shifts into a vibrant translucent honey-amber tip. Separating these two zones is a flawless, vivid white ceramic-like band that wraps entirely around the stone's crisp geometric edges
