It is a variety of chalcedony, or part of the quartz family. Its name is derived from the Latin word meaning “flesh.” Carnelian is said to represent love, and helps aid in fertility. Ancient Egyptians wore them to represent martyrs, and they believed that the stone fended off illness and the plague.
