About this product
Hold one up to a window on a gray afternoon and it lights from within, like a coal that has not quite gone out. These are five tumbled carnelians, a banded, translucent chalcedony, each polished smooth and round, no two marked alike, the color running from pale amber to deep rust within a single stone.
Carnelian shares its mineral family with agate and onyx, but keeps a warmth of color neither usually shows. It has long carried a reputation for courage and vitality. Roman soldiers carved seal rings from it and were said to carry it into battle, and Egyptian craftsmen set it in amulets meant to steady the wearer's nerve. The warm color made it an easy symbol, and the meaning outlasted the empires that first prized it.
