Carnelian has a long history. Over 4500 years ago, Sumerian and Egyptian craftsmen were making jewelry set with the stone. Ancient Romans and Greeks also valued the stone, which they used for intaglios. It is often associated with power and Carnelian has also been popular for signet rings.
Throughout history, there have been many beliefs in the positive attributes of carnelian. In ancient Egypt, carnelian rings were worn to eliminate bad tempers, hatred, jealousy and anger. Back then; the stone was also used to protect the dead during their journey to the afterlife. In Renaissance magic, carnelian was engraved with a picture of a warrior or a sword and placed in the home to protect it from storms. This amulet was also carried as a protection. Carnelian was also worn to prevent skin diseases, insanity, nosebleeds and blood diseases. It was also believed to be able to stop nightmares. Today, carnelian is thought to be a stone of great value to those who are shy and must speak in public.
The ring is set with an oval carnelian that measures 10mm x 7mm.
The ring is made of 10K yellow gold and is stamped on the inside of the shank with a stamp of gold purity and manufacturer's hallmark. The ring is stamped 10K (Key Symbol) and LORIE. I have not found any information on the manufacturer.
