Our Purple Stones Collection features Grape Agate, Lilac Agate, Burro Creek Agate, Charoite, and Purple Passion Agate. From the clustered purple spheres of Grape Agate to the swirling violet patterns of Charoite and the delicate lavender tones found in different agate varieties, these stones showcase the remarkable range of purple colors and textures found in nature.

Although they share similar colors, these materials have different geological origins. Grape Agate is a botryoidal form of chalcedony, while Lilac Agate, Burro Creek Agate, and Purple Passion Agate are trade or locality-based varieties of silica-rich material known for their distinctive colors and patterns. Charoite is a rare, complex silicate mineral found in Siberia, Russia, recognized for its fibrous, swirling purple appearance. Their colors and structures reflect differences in mineral chemistry, inclusions, and geological formation conditions.

Ben carefully selects, cuts, shapes, and polishes each stone to highlight its natural patterns, colors, and geological character. Set in handcrafted jewelry, these pieces bring together the diversity of purple gemstones and the craftsmanship that transforms them into wearable geology.
