Carnelian Heart Pendant

A naturally banded carnelian, shaped into a soft heart and wrapped by hand in flowing gold tarnish proof wire that echoes the stone’s natural movement. Warm layers of peach, rust, and rose drift through the stone like sediment caught mid-current — no two lines ever quite the same.
Carnelian is a variety of chalcedony and the subtle banding and gentle translucence in this piece show the stone at its best, allowing light to travel through rather than bounce away. 

The wirework is intentionally open and balanced, framing the stone without overpowering it. A small gold filled floral accent at the bail adds a nod to old-world craftsmanship and brings the two symmetrical sides together at a focal point. 

The pendant comes with an 18" hypoallergenic gold stainless steel chain.

Symbolism

Carnelian has long been associated with vitality, confidence, and creative fire. Historically worn for courage and clarity of expression, it’s a stone linked to momentum — forward motion, emotional warmth, support and grounded strength.
