The colors seen within fire agates are created by the Schiller effect, as found in mother-of-pearl and opals. This effect is caused by the alternating silica and iron oxide layers which diffract and allow light to pass which forms the interference of colors known as fire. This play of color requires good lighting for the best color display and the stone will appear darker and brownish colored in lower light conditions. These stones are natural rocks and are subject to normal flaws as found in nature or the result of hard-rock mining extraction (cracks, chips, etc).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePhotographs Copyright © 2026 Fire Agate US.
