Carnelian (Aqeeq)/Chalcedony


• Takes away poverty and resolves differences in one’s heart.
• Brings safety while traveling
• For protection against enemies and all types of misfortunes
• Is good for eyesight
• Creates joy in the heart by eliminating sadness and anger


Its Composition


Carnelian is a variety of chalcedony. It is a type of quartz. It appears in a vibrant range of fire-orange reds to brown-reds and has a dull, waxy luster. The reddish tints in the translucent stone are due to one of its ingredients: iron oxide.


How to Take Care of Your Carnelian

When this gem stone is placed in the sun, its color will change for example; brown tints often change to red. Thus, we recommend storing your carnelian away from sunlight, occasionally polishing gently with a soft cloth.
