Carnelian Agate Round 8mm

$1817 $2795

SKU: 8ST428

Carnelian agate rounds in 8mm — a semi-precious gemstone bead with the warm, banded character that makes each one slightly its own. Carnelian is a classic material for a reason, and having it in a versatile round gives you a workhorse bead that earns its place in serious gemstone work.

Carnelian's natural coloring runs from deep amber-orange to rich reddish-brown, often with subtle banding or variation that comes with the stone — no two beads are identical.

What to make with them

The 8mm round is a natural fit for strung gemstone bracelets and necklaces where you want consistent sizing with organic variation, and it pairs well with knotting on silk cord for a polished finished piece. Carnelian's association with the root and sacral chakras also makes these a go-to for intentional jewelry designs and mala-style strands.
