A GROUP LOT WITH A NATURAL BANDED AGATE AND A NAGA PATTERNED DZI BEAD

Tibet, 19th century or earlier. Each of elongated tubular form, with distinct characteristics reflecting their natural formation and age. One bead features a thicker shape with an intricate, naturally developed Naga pattern, while the other showcases organic banding, mineral layers, and an irregular surface. Transitioning from dark brown hues to lighter white areas at the ends. Both with central drilling allowing for suspension as a pendant.

Provenance: Old Austrian private collection.
Condition: Good condition, erosion, and fine natural patina. Typical traces of use and age-related minor wear.

Weight: 13 g – 26 g
Dimensions: Length 4.3 cm – 4.6 cm

Natural banded Dzi beads are highly valued for their organic beauty and spiritual significance, as their patterns are not artificially etched but rather formed by the natural mineral layering of agate over millions of years. These bands create fluid, wave-like or striped formations, symbolizing balance, energy flow, and the harmony between natural and cosmic forces. They are most often worn as protective amulets and are sometimes ground into a powder for use in traditional Tibetan medicine.

Naga skin weathering refers to the natural crackled or textured surface that appears on aged Dzi beads, resembling the scales of a Naga, the mystical serpent deity in Tibetan and Hindu traditions. In Tibetan culture, Nagas are guardians of wisdom, hidden treasures, and spiritual knowledge. The presence of Naga skin patterns on a Dzi bead is considered highly auspicious
