Carnelian Banded Agate - Tumblestone

Carnelian Banded Agate

Bold, warm and unmistakably alive - Carnelian Banded Agate is one of nature's most vibrant gifts. Formed through layers of volcanic silica, each tumblestone carries the fiery bands of orange, red and amber that have captivated healers, warriors and artists for thousands of years. Ancient Egyptians called it "the setting sun" and wore it as a talisman of courage and protection. Today, it remains one of the most beloved crystals for those seeking to reignite their inner fire.
