Western Arizona
Burro Creek Agate
We ventured into Burro Creek, just a little North of Nothing, Arizona, in November of 2023. After being tracked (unsuccessfully) by a mountain lion, we did manage to find quite a bit of the purple agate and vivid Pastelite all over the area. This agate formed in lacustrine dolomites from the Miocene and exhibits purple base material often decorated with red or white dendrites and inclusions.

FAQ
Ask Us Anything
How much does it cost to get a custom?
Each of our customs is priced based on material cost and the time it takes to craft them. The more silver required for the piece, the rarity of the lapidary material, and the intricacy of the design, are all factors that can raise the price of a custom piece. Our prices generally range from $50-$250.
How long does it take?
We typically take 2-4 weeks to handmake custom pieces, and will let you know if ahead of ordering if we have a long backlog of custom work that will delay the piece any further than that.
