Identity Help????? jade and malachite

6th Jul 2014 16:20 UTCSandy sandy

I was told these were the names

Not at all, this is an artificially coloured tumbled agate

Hi Sandy


I think Lionel is correct, artificially coloured tumbled agate !

Did the dealer/shop tell you those were "jade and malachite" ?

Or are you just guessing ?

I'm not even sure those are agate, but just tumbled quartz that has been artificially coloured.

My idea is tumble aventurine quartz.
