Inspiration Board: Carnelian

Florence October


It's no secret that carnelian happens to be one of my favorite stones. The color is rich, the stone has character ... I mean what's not to love. I am always on the look out for an unusual cut stone and this soft-cornered, carnelian triangles are just so luscious  While my usual preference is silver, this rich orange color pairs so beautifully with gold.

  4. What gorgeous carnelians! They have great color and wonderful shape. Perfect!
    as to the shoe comments from Bobbie and Therese...i would wear them in a heartbeat if they were dansko clogs, with that same color and same shine!

  5. What beautiful picks! I love carnelian too, such an antique-y feel to it, especially when paired with with gold. That lipstick looks so lush; I'd use it if I used lipstick!

  14. Such a pretty board. The earrings are beautiful. I agree with carnelian looking better with gold. It has such a warm coloring.
