Emerald is said to inspire loyalty and domestic happiness.  Healers also say that Emerald provides soothing and healing energy; it embodies unity, compassion and unconditional love.  The second of May's birthstones, Agates are a type of quartz and chalcedony, the formation of which results in amazing natural banding and a wide range of colours.  From vibrantly banded Agate from Botswana, to iridescent Fire Agate from Mexico, agates of the world are uniquely amazing.  We also have a fantastic choice of Scottish Agates, from vibrant orange-red Burn Anne to peach-coloured stones sourced right here in Fife!
