Product code: Vintage sale Sterling Silver Huge Red Carnelian Ring
Vintage Sterling Silver Red Carnelian huge gemstone ring with a halo of round Quartz sale crystals. I want to say it is native but the signature is so so hard to see and very worn. Size 7 Carnelian is a brownish-red to reddish-orange variety of chalcedony quartz. It is one of the oldest gemstones and was often used for making signet or seal rings in ancient Rome. Carnelian has its place in many religious scriptures, including Jewish, Christian and Islamic writings. In fact, it is one of the most important Islamic gemstones, thought to be referred to as 'aqiq' or 'aqueek'. The Prophet Muhammad was said to have worn a silver ring on his right hand with an Abyssinian stone, which was believed to have been carnelian. Ali was said to have worn a carnelian to protect himself from enemies and misfortune.
