The word “Carnelian” came from Latin, meaning “horn” because of the fresh color that could be observed. The group of stones is made of micro-crystalline 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.
