6.49 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Cabochon Carnelian Pair from Brazil

This matched pair of cabochon carnelians from The Natural Gemstone Company offers precise, consistent specifications suitable for fine jewelry design. The stones weigh 3.28 carats and 3.21 carats respectively, and measure 9.13 x 9.16 x 5.11 millimeters and 9.08 x 9.12 x 5.08 millimeters. Each is a round shape, exhibiting a transparent, reddish orange hue with intense color intensity, and they have been given an excellent polish. Clarity is graded as eye clean, evaluated at eye level, producing a clean visual field under normal inspection. Enhancement by dyeing has been applied, and the material is sourced from Brazil. The cabochon cut emphasizes the stones natural depth and uniform color, making them particularly well suited to bezel and low profile settings where surface polish and color saturation are the focal points.

For couples seeking complementary pieces, the matching weights and near identical dimensions permit a range of paired design solutions that balance unity and individual expression. Use them as coordinating stud earrings or as a set of pendants, with one partner selecting a warm yellow or rose gold bezel to accentuate the reddish orange tone, and the other choosing a satin or oxidized silver setting for subtle contrast while maintaining the shared color link. For more distinct pairings, mount one stone as the focal point in a signet or statement ring, and the other as a refined cufflink or tie pin, ensuring consistent visual language across different types of jewelry. The cabochon profile sits securely in bezel and flush settings, which also helps protect the dyed surface from exposure, making these settings preferable for everyday wear. Designers may also incorporate small accent diamonds or warm toned metalwork to enhance the stones color, or set one in a halo of contrasting stones to create a deliberate asymmetry that still reads as a matched pair.

When planning custom work, consider the dyeing enhancement in order to select protective settings and appropriate cleaning recommendations. The Natural Gemstone Company can provide detailed handling advice, matching suggestions, and verification of the stated specifications to support designer decisions. These two well matched carnelians present a reliable foundation for creating meaningful, complementary pieces for couples, combining consistency in size and color with versatile setting options that respect the stones character.
