This is a beautiful polished stone skull carved from white jasper with green dendrites, known as tree agate. It measures 5" from front to back. The craftsmanship on this skull is excellent, with accurate proportions, and fully rendered zygomatic arch, mandible and nasal cavities. Notable: unlike most of the skulls we carry, this one has been carved with the mouth in an open position.

About Tree Agate

Despite the name, tree agate is actually a dendritic jasper, a variety of chalcedony marked by branching manganese and iron oxide inclusions that resemble miniature landscapes. These dark green, mossy “trees” stand out against a milky white background, creating a natural scene unique to each piece.

Most tree agate on the market comes from deposits in western and central India, where silica-rich fluids once permeated cracks in ancient rock and left behind these beautiful dendritic formations. The stone is typically polished into spheres, towers, palm stones, and tumbled pieces that highlight its natural contrast and scenic patterns. Durable, soothing in color, and endlessly variable, tree agate is popular with collectors and artisans alike for its calm, woodland aesthetic and its connection to India’s long history of chalcedony craftsmanship.
