The Egyptians placed carved carnelian over the hearts of their dead to protect the soul on its journey. It was even found on King Tutankhamun's death mask. In ancient Rome, carnelian was the top choice for signet rings because hot wax does not stick to it. Romans pressed their rings into wax to stamp laws and orders. The famous leader Napoleon found a carnelian stone on a battlefield in Egypt and wore it for the rest of his life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(245, 222, 179);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Belief:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e In modern crystal practice, carnelian is a sacral chakra stone, associated with confidence, vitality, and courage. In Islamic tradition, it is said that the Prophet Muhammad wore a carnelian seal ring. It remains a popular stone for prayer rings today. This stone has been carried by pharaohs, soldiers, and prophets.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(245, 222, 179);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVermeil Gold:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe gold elements are crafted from heavy vermeil. This is a solid sterling silver base coated in 3.5 microns of pure 24kt gold, making it about seven times thicker than standard gold plating. Because we use pure 24kt gold over silver instead of a thin layer over brass, the color is richer and highly durable. If it wears over time, it reveals solid silver beneath, developing character rather than looking cheap. Vermeil has been the standard for premium jewelry since 18th century France.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003csmall\u003e\u003cem\u003eOur pieces are made with natural gemstones; slight variations in color, size, and pattern may occur.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/small\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aurum Brothers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57083518386559,"sku":"61068","price":312.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/2647\/files\/CarnelianGoldBraceletI_8mm_-solo-productshot1.webp?v=1773063884","url":"https:\/\/aurumbrothers.uk\/products\/carnelian-gold-bracelet-i-8mm","provider":"Aurum Brothers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
