These 5mm Carnelian are such a pretty color of clear orange. Most carnelian is somewhat muddy orange. They are set in Patterned sterling silver square wire. These are post earrings with a larger sized ear nut to insure the earring “sits up” on your earlobe and doesn’t sag. The earrings measure about 1 inch in diameter.

Carnelian is thought by some to enhance self esteem, to combat feelings of inadequacy, and to increase physical energy. In the home, it is sometimes used as a talisman to protect against fire and misfortune. Mined in Brazil, India, Australia, Russia, Madagascar, South Africa, Uruguay and U.S.A.
