Crazy lace agate (also known as Mexican Agate) is a banded chalcedony (microcrystalline quartz) that's infused with iron and aluminum and is often brightly coloured and complexly patterned. This produces the creamy browns, blacks, greys and golds and occasional pinks or reds swirled together in this stone.
