Comes with a printed crystal card.
These are A-grade Carnelian raw stones from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, sold by the piece or by the pound. Raw carnelian is rough and unpolished, its orange and red banding showing natural texture. Each piece runs 1-2 inches at Mohs 6.5-7, sourced through a community partnership. A favorite creativity stone for display shelves and crystal grids.
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.
It has been one of the most popular gemstones throughout human history, used in everything from Egyptian funerary jewelry to Roman signet rings.
We bring these raw pieces in from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Worth knowing: a lot of the carnelian on the market is heat-treated. What we carry is natural and untreated.
Carnelian has long been used in practices around 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, keep one nearby when you're making something with your hands. There's no single right way to carry it.
These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
Offered as a starting point for your own practice.
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.

A Grade raw stones show solid orange coloring and good natural form. Natural banding or slight color variations between pieces are part of the stone's character, not a defect. 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.
These stones are sourced from Brazil, a major global source for Carnelian. Brazilian Carnelian tends toward rich, saturated orange-red tones. Each batch is personally selected for color and form quality. It came to us through a community partnership, one of the sourcing models we publish and stand behind.
Every lot is inspected and graded by our expert team before it goes on sale, not taken on the supplier's word. A means good quality with solid visual appeal, a clear step above commercial material. Pieces that miss the mark never reach the shop.
How We GradeSourced through a regional cooperative or community-based workshop. Processing and economic benefit stay local, which means more of the value reaches the people doing the work. We say what we know and where our tracing stops.
Our Sourcing StandardsEverything we sell is natural in origin: never synthetic, never dyed, never coated. Where a stone has been heated, irradiated or stabilized, which is common in the trade for some species, we say so on the product page. If a piece is not as described, return it within 90 days of delivery.
