This natural 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧 weighs 𝟏𝟐.𝟑𝟓 𝐜𝐭 and is fashioned in a distinctive 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞-𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦, 𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐫-𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐜𝐮𝐭, combining substantial size with a warm reddish-orange body colour and naturally translucent appearance.
Measuring approximately 𝟐𝟑.𝟓 × 𝟏𝟒.𝟑 × 𝟓.𝟓 𝐦𝐦, the gemstone has an elongated asymmetric outline that gives it a strongly individual character. Rather than following a calibrated geometric shape, the free-form design allows the natural material and colour distribution to guide the finished presentation.
The gemstone displays an attractive 𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐡-𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐫, positioned toward the richer end of the traditional Carnelian colour range. Subtle variations in colour concentration and translucency may be visible throughout the stone and contribute to its natural visual depth.
Carnelian is the orange to reddish-orange variety of 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐜𝐞𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐲, a cryptocrystalline member of the Quartz group. Its characteristic warm coloration is generally associated with finely dispersed iron-bearing compounds within the silica structure.
The gemstone is 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐥𝐮𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭, allowing light to penetrate the material while preserving the strong reddish-orange body colour. Natural cloudy structures, fine internal variations and subtle colour zoning may be visible within the cryptocrystalline material.
The 𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐜𝐮𝐭 is particularly effective for Carnelian because its faceted upper surface creates changing reflections while allowing the body colour and internal character of the translucent material to remain visually prominent.
At 12.35 ct and more than 23 mm in length, this specimen has considerable face-up presence and is especially suitable for an individual jewellery design where an unconventional natural shape is desired.
With its 𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐡-𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐫, substantial 12.35 ct weight and distinctive free-form rose cut, this natural Carnelian offers strong individual character and excellent potential for a unique custom jewellery design.
