5.63 Ct. Cabochon Carnelian from Brazil

There are stones that do not merely catch the light, they sing under it, and this pear shaped carnelian sings like a warm sunset bottled for the finger, a translucent heart of red and orange at 5.63 carats, measuring 14.01 x 10.05 x 5.73 millimeters, shaped into a gracious pear that suggests the first tear of joy and the last ember of a long day, cabochon cut to hold a soft, liquid glow within its skin. The surface is an excellent polish that reflects a lover?s whisper of light, the body is eye clean when viewed at eye level, and the color reads as intense in every nuance, a saturation that is both bold and tender, an invitation to touch. This is a gemstone that asks to be part of a vow, a keepsake sewn into the daily fabric of life, a companion to memory and to intention, its warm reddish orange hue like a promise written in the language of sunrise. I speak for The Natural Gemstone Company when I say that stones like this are chosen not only for beauty, but for presence, for the way they hold stories within their smooth curves and translucent depths.

The origin of this carnelian is Brazil, and that provenance matters in the way that a landscape lends character to a voice. Brazilian carnelian is formed where ancient rivers and volcanic histories conspire, where iron and silica have met and mingled beneath tropical skies, and that earth legacy becomes a kind of signature. To own a Brazilian carnelian is to hold a fragment of that geological poetry, a souvenir of the vast, molten patience that coaxed such color into being, and collectors and romantics both value that traceable lineage because it speaks to authenticity and to a narrative beyond the workshop. Transparency is part of our care, so it is important to know that this gem has received enhancement by dyeing, a practiced technique that deepens and stabilizes the vibrant reddish orange tone, and because the stone is cabochon cut and expertly polished, the dye sits evenly and the surface reads as natural and luminous. The craftsmanship here is as important as the material, and The Natural Gemstone Company selects pieces with excellent polish and proportional dimensions, so the pear shape feels balanced and poised on the hand, whether set as a solitary engagement centerpiece or cradled among other heirloom pieces.

Imagine pairing this carnelian with a White Opal to create contrast and conversation, the carnelian offering warm, luminous solidity while the White Opal brings a cool, opalescent shimmer that seems to float like moonlight on water, White Opal named for its delicate play of color across a pale base, an ideal companion when you want a composition that speaks of both fire and light. Wear the duo, and you will feel as if you carry an intimate dawn and a patient moon together, reminding you of love that is both incandescent and gentle. This carnelian, measured and described with precision, invites settings that accentuate its pear shape, cabochon ease, and eye clean clarity, and the intense color intensity ensures that even in soft candlelight the gem will be a warm focal point. At The Natural Gemstone Company we curate with heart and knowledge, and when we present a Brazilian carnelian that is 5.63 carats, 14.01 x 10.05 x 5.73 millimeters, pear shaped, cabochon cut, eye clean at eye level, with intense color and excellent polish, and with the enhancement of dyeing disclosed, we are offering more than a stone. We are offering a small, portable piece of earth and story, a vessel for vows and private joys, a gem that will grow familiar as a beloved line of poetry, and perhaps become the promise you make on a particular morning, carried always as a warm, bright whisper against the skin.
