Eleven carats puts this Sulemani agate in the middle-to-large range for the stone. Agate is cut into bigger sizes more readily than most gems, so stones above ten carats are common, and this one is no giant. It will be noticeable on the hand without taking it over, which is why many buyers choose this size for a daily-wear ring.

It weighs 11.2 carats and is a natural Sulemani agate with a hardness of 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale.

Be aware that the bands are sometimes dyed to sharpen them, so a seller should be willing to say what they know. Ask us on WhatsApp about this one, reference AG-SU-0007, and we will tell you what we know.

From six carats up a stone becomes the centre of attention. It wants a broader shank or a secure claw setting and suits an occasion ring, a signet or a centre pendant. Clean natural material of this size turns up far less often, and the per-carat rate reflects that.

On the Mohs scale sulemani agate rates 6.5 to 7. That is middle-of-the-road hardness: comfortable in pendants and earrings, and in rings worn with some care. Store it apart from harder stones so it does not pick up scratches, and wipe it with a damp cloth rather than scrubbing.

Whoever you buy sulemani agate from, make sure of three things: the stone is natural rather than lab-grown, glass or glass-filled; any treatment is stated in writing; and the weight quoted is the weight of the finished stone. We check every sulemani agate for those three points before it is listed, and because you pay on delivery you can look at the stone — or have it tested — before any money changes hands.
