Carnelian is a natural stone from the quartz family. It has been used in jewelry and seal stones since ancient times. The color is created by iron in the material and ranges from light orange to a deeper reddish-brown. Carnelian is usually cut smoothly so that the color is displayed beautifully.
Carnelian is often seen on brooches as a cabochon or in cleanly defined shapes. The stone doesn't require a complex cutting technique; it's all about color, surface finish, and placement. This keeps the whole thing clear and comfortable to wear.
Carnelian in antique and vintage brooches
Brooches with carnelian were especially popular in the 19th and early 20th century. In antique designs you often see symmetry and a clear frame, sometimes combined with gold or silver. Later, in vintage pieces, the stone was given more freedom of shape and was also used in more modern designs.
