Carnelian Cabochons

Carnelian Cabochons

Gorgeous bright red Carnelian cabochons. A classic gemstone - treasured by civilisations through the ages.

Carnelian is often heated to improve its colour; it is reasonable to assume these cabochons are heated, as are most on the market.

These pieces are perfect for rings and necklaces, and even for larger pairs of earrings. Because of their lovely red colour, they contrast beautifully with silver and gold. They also do look pretty nice in antiqued wires.

The round cabochons are mostly quite small, under 10MM. The ovals, however, have a lot more variety - up to a huge 40x30MM cabochon!
