Mined from: China

Description: This Carnelian slabbed tumble from China is a vibrant slice of polished quartz-rich chalcedony, showcasing the stone’s iconic warm tones—ranging from burnt orange and amber to deep, fiery red. Each piece is cut into a thin, irregular slab and tumbled smooth, preserving the natural banding and color gradients that make carnelian so visually striking. Chinese deposits, particularly from regions like Liaoning and Xinjiang, are known for producing carnelian with exceptional translucency and saturation, often with subtle agate-like banding.

Unlike more uniformly rounded tumbles, these slabbed pieces offer a larger surface area, making them ideal for display, crafting, or crystal grids. The polished finish enhances the stone’s natural luster and reveals intricate internal structures formed over millions of years through volcanic and sedimentary processes. Whether for collecting or creative use, each slab is a small geological artwork—both ancient and energetic.

Metaphysically, Carnelian is celebrated as a stone of motivation, vitality, and courage. Often associated with the sacral and root chakras, it’s believed to boost confidence, stimulate creativity, and energize the body. A favorite among artists, speakers, and those navigating major life transitions, carnelian is thought to bring warmth and steady focus—just like the glowing ember it resembles.
