Pale agate with almost no color in its banding goes into Agate Jellyfish, which is pieced together by hand. Each piece has a fibrous, star-like crystal structure radiating from the center, which gives the slab a soft, slightly cloudy depth rather than crisp rings. The Giant version uses larger, rounder pieces, some with a faint blush, and from a distance it can read almost like a single stone.

Its low contrast lets it sit comfortably beside white marble, plaster or pale wood. Backlit, the surface shifts to a warm cream with the piece outlines showing through. The thin 0.6 cm option is useful for light wall cladding, while the 2 cm standard serves counters, and anything up to 4 cm can be made; sizes are produced to order up to 320 x 190 cm. Typical placements are bathroom walls, vanity tops, backlit panels and living room accent walls. Microfiber and a gentle cleaner keep the surface clear without dulling it.
