Sagacia’s Finest Statement Carnelian Bracelets in The Most Beautiful Orange-Red Shades
As a gemstone well recognized for its orangish, yellowish, and reddish color, the carnelian stone is used a lot for making beautiful gemstone jewelry that is sturdy and durable. Although carnelian jewelry, specifically carnelian bracelets is in vogue nowadays, these jewelry items have been used in making beautiful jewelry for thousands of years. Carnelian beads that are about 12,000 years old, which are of the Neolithic Era, have been found in Bulgaria, along with other carnelian artifacts. Apart from beads, intricate carnelian bracelets that belong to the Bronze Age are found on the island of Crete (which is located in Greece). With both of these instances, we can conclude that humans of past civilizations loved carnelian and for them, carnelian was desirable.
If you talk about recent times, carnelian has emerged as a popular choice for making sterling silver jewelry – because this stone is highly affordable and also because this stone looks beautiful when set in 925 sterling silver. It’s a known fact among jewelers that carnelian is one of the least costing chalcedonies, and because this stone is mined in various locations all around the world, it is easily accessible to all classes of the social hierarchy around various locations of the globe. As carnelian is a chalcedony, you can conclude that it comprises of quartz or silicon dioxide (if we speak chemically). Like all quartzes, carnelian is a very tough stone – it ranks at 7.5 on the Moh’s Scale of Mineral Hardness, which is why you cannot break carnelian even with a steel knife.
This stone comes in a wide range of hues, depending on the location from where carnelian is mined – carnelian can be found in colors such as orange-red, orange, brownish-red, and yellowish-orange. After the carnelian stones are polished, they show a beautiful glassy to waxy luster, and if you want to view the translucency of this beautiful stone, consider purchasing it in a prong or channel setting – in these settings, light can pass from the sides of the stone. But, there are exceptions – some carnelian stones are also opaque in nature, which is why you need to clarify from the jeweler regarding which carnelian – translucent or opaque - he is setting in your carnelian jewelry.
As far as the name “carnelian” is concerned, this name has been derived from a medieval Latin word “Corneolus”, which can be roughly translated to the texture resembling a horn. Perhaps because the texture and look of freshly mined carnelian stone resembles a horn, this stone is named so. As spoken above, the mines of carnelian are located in various parts of the world, however, one of the biggest mines of carnelian are located in the Gujrat state of India. Some of the other mines of Carnelian are located in Brazil, China, Australia, Serbia, Russia, Germany, and parts of the US and Western Europe.
