Warring states agate
the origin of this name is because it resembles a material found in Zhanguo Warring States tombs from the
period 475-221 BC.
The location seems controversial issue because some authors write that is from Yi Liangshan south of
Sichuan Province , others from Liaoning province , both in China. Therefore I am not sure, maybe nobody
want
to discover the real location.
However the material is very similar to the Xuanhua type , and occur in small nodules.The predominant
colors are red,orange and yellow with often quartz druzy in the central portion.
Natural, untreated.
