Carnelian

Carnelian is the stone for starting the thing rather than planning it. Warm, motivating, and one of the oldest worked stones there is.

The story

Egyptian craftsmen set carnelian into amulets and burial jewellery, and Roman signet rings were cut from it because hot wax will not stick to it. Its warm orange comes from iron in the chalcedony.

Where it comes from

Brazil, India, Uruguay and Madagascar.

Its energy

Motivation, courage to begin, creative drive and warmth. Carnelian is the push to act.

Caring for your piece

Keep it away from perfume, hairspray and cleaning products, and put it on last when you are getting ready. Store each piece separately so harder stones cannot scratch softer ones.

Clean it with a soft dry cloth. Take jewellery off before swimming, showering or sleeping, and natural stones will hold their colour and their polish for years.
