6.87 Ct. Cabochon Carnelian from Brazil

When you are searching for a gemstone that stops conversation and creates a moment, this translucent orange carnelian from Brazil answers that need with confidence. This gem weighs 6.87 carat, and measures 14.19 by 10.08 by 6.10 millimeters, and it has been shaped into an elegant oval cabochon that is generous enough to command attention without overpowering refined jewelry designs. The surface shows an excellent polish, the color intensity is described as intense, and the clarity grade is eye clean as evaluated at eye level, which means the stone appears flawless to the naked eye and presents a smooth, luminous field of warm color. This specimen has undergone professional dyeing enhancement to achieve its vibrant orange hue, and this enhancement is stable and consistent with careful wear and common cleaning practices. At The Natural Gemstone Company we select cabochons with this level of translucency and polish to ensure the light plays gently through the dome, creating a soft inner glow that reads as both modern and timeless when set in rings, pendants, or bespoke creations.

If your goal is a striking gift that communicates thoughtfulness, personality, and long term value, this carnelian makes a beautiful choice. The warm orange tone is evocative of sunset and hearth, and it flatters a wide range of skin tones while pairing effortlessly with both yellow and rose gold as well as silvery metals. The oval cabochon silhouette offers a sleek tactile surface that invites touch, and the size presents as a statement piece on a ring or as a captivating center for a pendant. For someone who prefers an understated luxury, the smooth cabochon speaks of natural elegance rather than flash, and for someone who loves color and presence, the intense orange captures attention in a way that feels personal and joyful. The gem photographs exceptionally well, and the included hand photos demonstrate how the stone sits with graceful proportions on the finger, so you can imagine this jewel being worn every day or saved for meaningful occasions.

Beyond its immediate beauty, this carnelian appeals to the collector and the craftsperson who values provenance and practical considerations. Origin Brazil is noted on this piece, and that origin is associated with carnelian material known for consistent translucence and rich tones. The cabochon cut is ideal for enhancing the stone’s internal glow, and the eye clean clarity assures you that the visual field remains clean and uninterrupted, ideal for mounting in open back settings or closed back bezels depending on the design you envision. Because the stone has been dyed, gentle care is advised, and we recommend avoiding prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals and extreme heat, and to use warm soapy water for cleaning followed by a soft cloth. For settings, consider a low bezel for protection when the carnelian will be worn daily, or an open gallery if you want maximum light to pass through the stone. If you desire a coordinated pairing, we also offer White Opal specimens that create a sophisticated contrast to the carnelian, and a combination of warm orange and ethereal white opal plays beautifully across necklaces and matched ring sets.

At The Natural Gemstone Company we understand that finding the right gemstone can feel like a search for a perfect story, and we are committed to helping you end that search with joy and confidence. We provide clear information about enhancement, measurements, and origin so you can make an informed choice for a gift or for a signature piece of jewelry. If you are choosing this carnelian as a present, imagine it arriving in a simple elegant box ready to be presented, and imagine the warmth of the color reflecting in the face of the person who receives it. We are here to advise on custom settings and to answer questions about care, mounting options, and complementary stones such as White Opal that can be used to design a matched ensemble. Let this Brazilian orange carnelian be the solution to your search for a memorable and striking gift, a piece that resolves the quest for beauty, quality, and emotional resonance, and that will be treasured for years to come.
