Since the dawn of time, people have ornamented themselves with that which is rare, unusual or beautiful. Jewelry sets us apart from the crowd, and says a great deal about how we see ourselves. The three gems blended together in this unusual necklace have all been worn and prized throughout history, from ancient Egypt to the present. Jasper is an opaque member of the quartz family, found in a great variety of colors. Numerous healing powers are ascribed to it, which vary according to the color of the stone. Agate is another quartz, found in the recesses of volcanic rocks. Agate has been used for protective talismans and amulets for centuries. It is said to cause pleasant dreams and to have a positive effect of the wearer. Carnelian was thought by the Egyptians to be the distilled essence of the sun's rays. A red or orange variety of chalcedony, carnelian is thought to stimulate the circulation of the blood and to give the skin a healthy glow. It leaves one with a generally calm and balanced feeling. Together, these lovely gems create a necklace of timeless beauty, certain to make the wearer feel wonderful both inside and out. Collection: Jewlery Style: Beaded Necklaces Medium: Carnelian, Agate
