Hold this carnelian bowl up to a window and light shines straight through the stone.
That translucency is what separates carnelian from opaque jaspers, and it brings out the dark brownish red and creamy yellow running through this bowl. The polish is fine and even, and a cut base keeps it level on any flat surface. It holds rings and earrings on a dresser or a few pocket stones on a desk. It is a thoughtful holiday or housewarming gift for someone who likes warm, earthy colors, and the size works on a nightstand without crowding it.
Carnelian is the translucent orange to red to brown variety of chalcedony, a microcrystalline quartz. Its color comes from iron, and heat can brighten it, so much carnelian in the trade is heat treated. It is hard and takes a high polish.
Stone Meaning: Carnelian is traditionally associated with motivation and courage.
