Dyeing does not conceal these natural structures but highlights them even further – the contours of the bands stand out in brilliant colors. At Crystal Paradise, these slices are hand-selected, so you always receive a quality-conscious piece with individual patterning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe key properties and features at a glance:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Genuine agate (cryptocrystalline quartz), naturally grown\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSurface:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polished on both sides, smooth and translucent surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColoring:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gently dyed – the natural band structure remains fully preserved\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Round or naturally shaped slice with a natural outer edge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize and weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Varies depending on the piece – each specimen is one of a kind\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUse:\u003c\/strong\u003e Home decoration, energy work, meditation, gift\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDecorate, gift, feel – ways to use the agate slice\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDyed agate slices unfold their appeal in many different ways.

A \u003cstrong\u003edyed agate slice\u003c\/strong\u003e is made of genuine, natural agate. The dyeing is a surface treatment that does not change the natural band structure and composition of the mineral – it merely emphasizes the existing patterns through vivid colors. The authenticity of the stone remains fully intact.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is a dyed agate slice a suitable gift for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDyed agate slices are a popular gift for people who enjoy natural materials, home decoration, mindfulness, or crystals. Thanks to their vibrant colors and uniqueness, they are suitable for birthdays, special occasions, or simply as a thoughtful gift – for beginners and experienced mineral lovers alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the coloring of the agate slice fade over time?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith careful care, the coloring stays vivid for a long time. Direct, intense sun exposure over an extended period as well as aggressive cleaning agents should be avoided, as these can affect the color. With the recommended care, your agate slice will retain its vibrant coloring permanently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does a dyed agate slice differ from an undyed one?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUndyed agate slices display the mineral's natural, often subdued earth tones – beige, gray, brown, and soft white. Dyed variants present the same natural grain in intense, vivid colors such as blue, green, pink, or purple. Both variants are genuine agate; the choice is purely a matter of personal taste and the desired effect in décor.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Crystal Paradise","offers":[{"title":"red - approx. 11cm","offer_id":54196993589574,"sku":"MIN_0017_scheibe_kem-1","price":8.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"blue - approx. 7cm","offer_id":54196993622342,"sku":"MIN_0017_scheibe_kem-2","price":10.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"blue - approx. 11cm","offer_id":54196993655110,"sku":"MIN_0017_scheibe_kem-3","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"blue - approx. 14cm","offer_id":54196993687878,"sku":"MIN_0017_scheibe_kem-4","price":25.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0816\/3147\/8086\/files\/achatscheibe-blau-11cm.jpg?v=1741012705","url":"https:\/\/crystalparadise.live\/en\/products\/achatscheibe-gefarbt-ca-11-cm","provider":"crystal paradise","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
