Knife block made of Star Galaxy Gold with gold plating on the back, around the agate disc.

Unique thick blood agate disc with gold plating that can only be seen from behind. The agate disc is translucent and is a real eye-catcher in the sunshine. Agate has been highly valued since ancient times. In ancient Egypt, rings and vessels were made from agate around 1000 BC . Amulets made from agate were said to protect against lightning, storms and thirst. Agates were formed by cavities in volcanic rock. Here, the gases contained in the flowing lava no longer penetrated to the surface of the lava flow and could not escape. Instead, they were trapped in the cooling lava, forming a cavity that was later filled with agate, quartz, calcite or other mineral substances.

The Star Galaxy Gold from India exudes a sparkling and luxurious ambience. It is particularly impressive due to its gold and bronze-colored inclusions that sparkle on its deep black background. When polished, its full radiance comes into its own. The stone fits into any living environment that relies on strong contrasts. Simply elegant and timeless. The reflective minerals are bronzites embedded in a dark matrix. The Star Galaxy Gold is a gabbro and not granite. A gabbro is a fine-grained igneous rock that was formed deep in the earth's interior. It consists mainly of dark minerals such as pyroxene, hornblende and olives; quartz is absent or only occurs in trace amounts.
