It is the name given to any banded Chalcedony, which is a microcrystalline variety of Quartz. The different names reference either the colour or locality where it is found, for example Blue Lace Agate has a certain light blue wavy banding, and Botswana Agate comes from Botswana. A lot of Agate is sold in tumbles, but larger pieces can be cut and polished into towers, and Agate Geodes are often found with druzy Quartz in the centre.
