Portmeirion Agate Scarf

All the bright, Mediterranean colours and unexpected sweeps and swerves combine to create a scarf as surprising as coming upon Sir Clough Williams-Ellis' Italianate Portmerion on an otherwise fairly undistinguished coastline (sorry, Borth and Porthmadog). We love its vibrancy and boldness!

The microscope used to capture this image delivers a magnification upto 200 times actual size – so that means we needed an agate sample less than 1 millimetre wide to create this scarf.

It also means that human eyes have never seen this image before now, despite the mineral itself being millions of years old.
