f you have ever thought that agate slices are only rock displays, you are definitely missing out! These remarkable colorful slices can be anything you want them to be.

From simple to complex, agate slices are great inspirations for making holiday gifts. Or, give your friends the slices as they are and see the ideas they come up with.
2. Larimar Jewelry
This super popular jewelry trend is a hot item for holiday wish lists, and Michael’s Gems has it. Larimar comes from a single mountaintop region in the Dominican Republic. The mines there harvest an unknown supply of this remarkable Caribbean blue stone. Be sure to get some before it’s gone!
3. Fossil Bookends
There’s always someone on your holiday shopping list who’s tricky to shop for. For times like these, fossil bookends are a great choice. Their fascinating prehistoric value attracts people who appreciate functional and timeless items. And they look great on a desk or bookshelf in the home or office!
4. Himalayan Salt Lamps
Himalayan salt lamps are an amazing popular gift giving trend right now. Their soothing pink light is a beautiful addition to any room. The natural mined salt may help purify the air. Be careful who you buy salt lamps from. Some may be fake! All our salt lamps at Michael’s Gems are from the Pakistani Himalayan region, so you can be sure they’re the real deal.
