Agate Burnishers

Another hard-to-find tool. These natural stones can be used like a steel burnisher for closing bezels and smoothing imperfections in metal. The advantage of Agate over steel is that it will not damage your stones. Additional uses include applying gold and silver leaf/foils, burnishing Art Metal Clay before firing, and by bookbinders for a variety of tasks. 9" overall length.
