Talisman carnelian

Carnelian Talisman

In ancient times, carnelian was already a popular gemstone, alongside lapis lazuli. The warm orange stone was used in jewellery and as a talisman. Due to its colour, it was often associated with kings; could it be because this stone represented health and happiness?

Carnelian as a Symbol of Luck

Since antiquity, many people have considered carnelian a symbol of luck. But did you know that 18th-century English and French royalty used gemstone language to convey messages? The first letter of the various gemstones in a piece of jewellery stood for a specific message or name that the wearer wished to convey.

The Effects of Carnelian

Carnelian is an orange agate that instills courage and has a positive effect on enterprise. It's a beneficial stone suitable for many (however, if you have high blood pressure, you should not wear carnelian). It works well against nightmares and promotes pleasant dreams.
