GEMSTONE OF THE WEEK CARNELIAN Carnelian was believed by the Romans to be a stone of courage.  In ancient Egypt, the stone was placed on mummies to assist the dead in their journey to the afterlife while architects to the pharaohs wore carnelian to denote rank and status.  In contemporary times, carnelian is thought by some to enhance self-esteem and creativity, to combat feelings of inadequacy, to increase physical energy and overcome insomnia. Carnelian is a variety of chalcedony and is a microcrystalline quartz.  Carnelian appears in a vibrant range of fire-orange reds to brown-reds.  Carnelian is most commonly found in India, Brazil, Siberia and Germany.    20% OFF ANY CARNIELAN GEMSTONES STRANDS THIS WEEK THRU 2/14.
