Indian Agate is an earthy green variety with beautiful moss colored detailing throughout, and it was used in ancient times by wise sages to uplift them and give them confidence. Even today all kinds are seen as a source of strength and confidence as much as it is a stone of compassion and healing.

Heishi is the name given to this style of beads. A small polished bead, often of shell, coral, or turquoise, especially a small flat disk that can be strung with others of uniform size to form a smooth cylindrical strand, used to make jewelry.

The style of bead come from the Kewa Pueblo people (formerly Santo Domingo Pueblo) of New Mexico, before the use of metals in jewelry by that people.
