Can I see loose carnelians before I choose one?

Yes — that's how we work. Book a viewing or just walk in, sit down with the actual stones, and we'll discuss origin and treatment on every carnelian.

Is carnelian natural or treated?

Carnelian is a warm orange-to-red chalcedony; much of it is gently heated to deepen the colour, a stable and accepted treatment, and we disclose it. At 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale it's a durable, easy-wearing stone for a ring, pendant or earrings.

Carnelian has been used in jewellery adornments since ancient times and has been found in rings and signets made by the Greeks and Romans. The gemstone is thought to be named after the kornel cherry, which is similar in colour. Carnelian ranges in hue from brownish red to amber and orange, and while it is usually a solid colour, it can also feature bands or contain cloudy areas that make the stone appear to have lighter and darker zones. Sources of Carnelian include India, Brazil, Uruguay, and the United States (New Jersey and Oregon).
