Hand-Carved Carnelian Centerpiece (10")

Material: Natural Carnelian (Banded Chalcedony) Diameter: Approx. 10 inches Origin: India Finish: Hand-carved, hand-polished Pantone Palette: 16-1346 TCX Apricot Orange (soft body tones), 17-1462 TCX Emberglow (deep burnt orange zones), 14-1120 TCX Golden Haze (translucent edges), 18-1248 TCX Red Mahogany (dense banding) A wide, open-form carnelian carving shaped from a single piece of chalcedony. Its surface carries a mixture of translucent honey, burnt orange, and warm rust—banding that moves like slow, molten layers when illuminated. The stone’s natural zoning creates a gentle gradient along the rim and a richer density toward the base. The polish is smooth and continuous, giving the bowl a soft reflective sheen. When sunlight passes through, the chalcedony glows from within, revealing depth and fine mineral structure—clouding, ribbons, and quiet concentric rings that shift depending on angle. Grounded in weight yet visually warm, this piece sits well as a centerpiece for fruit, décor, or display. A functional object with the calm presence of carved stone.
