About This Carnelian

Carnelian runs from pale peach to deep rust red. The color comes from iron, and the best pieces have a warmth that feels almost lit from within. It's a variety of chalcedony, related to agate, and it polishes up with a glassy shine.

Sourced directly from Boeny, Madagascar. Worth knowing: a lot of the carnelian on the market is heat-treated. What we carry is natural and untreated.

It has been one of the most popular gemstones throughout human history, used in everything from Egyptian funerary jewelry to Roman signet rings.

Traditionally Used For

In crystal traditions, carnelian is often associated with a quiet sense of renewal, settling into who you already are, and making space for new ideas. It's traditionally linked to the sacral and root chakras. If that resonates, place it on your desk or in a creative workspace. Work with it the way that fits your own practice.

These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.

Care and Use

Sensitivity Low

Carnelian sits at 6.5-7 on the Mohs scale, about as hard as glass, so it handles daily use but will scratch against harder stones. Keep chemical cleaners away from it; they can etch the surface.

Questions Before You Buy

Is this real carnelian, and is it heated, dyed or treated?

Natural carnelian from Boeny, Madagascar. Untreated. Some commercial carnelian is heat-treated agate; ours is natural.

Will I get the exact pieces in the photos?

You'll receive pieces from the same batch photographed, weighed to the amount you choose. Every piece passes our quality control and meets or exceeds what you see in the photos. Single specimens have their own product pages and say so.

What size are the pieces?

Each piece measures 1.5 to 3 inches on its longest side and weighs 50 to 200 grams.

What does AA grade mean?

Grades reflect visual quality within a batch. A is standard, with typical inclusions. AA shows stronger color, cleaner surfaces and tighter sizing. AAA is the top 10 to 15 percent of a batch. Every lot is inspected and graded by our team in Rockville, Maryland, not taken on the supplier’s word.

Where does it come from, and how do you know?

This batch is from Boeny, Madagascar. It came to us through a community partnership, one of the sourcing models we publish and stand behind.
