Carnelian is a variety of chalcedony and is a micro-crystalline quartz. It appears in a vibrant range of fire-orange reds to brown-reds. The reddish tints in this translucent stone are due to their iron oxide content.

Carnelian is associated with the solar plexus chakra (the yellow chakra), in which imbalances are thought to cause digestive problems, as well as lack of confidence. You are purchasing a 36" circular strand of drilled carnelian chip beads.
