Carnelian gems alternating with silver stars and carved bone make this set a natural beauty. Hand strung with Indian craftmanship, this necklace and earrings make an attractive set which can be worn with day or evening wear. Ancient Egyptian tombs are full of examples of Carnelian jewels, because of their belief in the stone’s power in the afterlife. According to their system, amulets of Carnelian could prove helpful in ensuring the Ka’s (the soul’s) passage into the next world. In more modern times, Goethe attributed the powers of protection against evil, of continuation of hope and comfort, and of good luck. The blood-red varieties were greatly valued by the ancients, who produced beautiful engravings in carnelian and also used them for seals. Buddhists in China and India created amulets inlaid with Carnelian and other semi-precious stones, ascribing to them powers of protection and utilizing them for many rituals.24 inches long
