Red Carnelian:
Semi-Precious stone
The word "Carnelian" came from Latin, meaning "horn" because of the fresh color that could be observed. The group of stones is made of microcrystalline or crystalline variety of quarts. It is thought to increase stamina, vitality, and endurance, as well as promote emotional balance. It was used in the past as a seal ring for imprinting on important documents because hot wax did not stick to Carnelian. The word "Carnelian" is also used to describe a certain shade of red which is the shade of red both for
Campbell's Soup and Cornell University.
