Carnelian is a smooth, lustrous stone (a type of chalcedony) that is often translucent with banding patterns; see matching necklace called "Carved in Carnelian". The carnelian stones are flanked by blue-dyed jasper rounds and white mother-of-pearl beads. The style is classy and sophisticated; easy-to-use toggle clasp is copper. Comes in a nice white gift box with ARThouse logo; matching earrings are available.
