I’ve always had a thing for agate, geodes and rocks of all manner, long before they were so on-trend. (I was one of those kids who, on elementary school field trips to museums, would head straight to the gift shop to see if I could buy some cool tumbled stones and gems for my collection. I know, nerd alert!) So imagine my appreciation of this stunning bathroom wall in a Miami home by DKOR Interiors.
Unfortunately, I couldn’t find much information about how the blue agate look was achieved, but my fellow Pinterest pinners came to the rescue. Pinner (and interior designer) Lauren Maggio pointed to Alex Turco waterproof art panels, and I think she’s spot on. However this bathroom came to be, it’s solid! (Solid as a rock.) (SORRY.)

This is beautiful! I would kill for this in my home. (And I also was the kid running to the gift shop to scoop up gems. I also had an expansive rock collection that I showed off during recess. Coolness.)
LOL! We were the coolest. No regrets.

Pretty sure this is a geode section of onyx. I saw a World record size agate at the Smithsonian that was only 10 lbs. Hopefully the designer will provide more info on Houzz. In the meantime, people are sending this viral on Pinterest, labeling it as an agate slab… The Internet is a dangerous place!
This is incredible! I need to find a way to knock this off.

Love the agate wall! Beautiful. Really makes a visual impact.
I interviewed this designer on Houzz. It is a photograph of agate! Much lighter than the real deal
