Montana agates have always held a special place for me. When I was a kid, my family would road trip from New Mexico to Montana to visit my grandma and extended family. One of my favorite things to do while we were there was agate hunting. I loved searching through the rocks for those little flashes of color and pattern, then heading home to New Mexico with a bucket full of pretty agates.
Now, I get to turn those same kinds of stones into jewelry, which makes working with Montana agate feel like a little piece of my childhood coming full circle.
This one-of-a-kind pendant pairs sterling silver with a Montana agate, letting the natural patterns and colors of the stone take center stage. No two agates are alike, so each piece has its own character and story.
Montana agate is a variety of chalcedony found primarily along the Yellowstone River and its tributaries in Montana. Its translucent appearance and distinctive red, brown, black, and golden inclusions are naturally formed over millions of years, creating patterns unique to every stone.
