Rough Carnelian
Lovely quality pieces of rough Carnelian. Carnelian is a lovely red stone, a gorgeous variant of Chalcedony.
Collectors may be interested in a single stone as a display item – as there are several shades of Carnelian from orange to red, they can make an interesting display. Because these are natural stones, we can’t guarantee colours or sizes etc. There is a large amount of variation amongst the stones!
The pieces are reasonably small, measuring around 20-50MM each. As such, they may be ideal for rock tumbling, if you get the 1KG packet.
The pictures you see here are representative of the products and are usually not the exact item you will receive. Where various grades are available we do try to photograph each grade – but some photographs are still on their way!

Bloody hell!
A kilo of Carnelian is a lot! Big lumps of the stuff, too – the Largest fills my palm. Far too much for my Viking Display, but that could be a bonus for some! Colour quality is a mixed bag – some are a deep red whilst others are a milky pink-white and all are rough. Almost reminiscent of pieces of broken flint one might find on the beach. Still, Excellent product as ever.
