{"product_id":"zylinder-karneol-kette","title":"Cylinder Carnelian Necklace","description":"\u003ch2\u003eThe Stone: Carnelian from the Chalcedony Family\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarnelian is the orange-red to reddish-brown variety of chalcedony, a microcrystalline form of quartz, chemically silicon dioxide (SiO₂). Its color comes from finely dispersed iron compounds: iron oxide colors the stone red, while iron hydroxide gives it a brownish look. With a Mohs hardness of 6.5 to 7, it is durable enough for everyday wear, and when polished, it shows a waxy to glassy luster. This stone is cut as a cylinder with narrow side facets and beveled ends. Its color zones flow into one another, from a strong orange-red to a light, almost milky tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial and Craftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can choose between 925 sterling silver and warm 14K gold-filled. 14K gold-filled is a real, thick layer of gold that is firmly bonded to a base metal. Unlike simple gold plating, which is applied only wafer-thin, wears off over time, and fades fairly quickly, 14K gold-filled keeps its warm gold tone for years. The cylinder is drilled through and sits directly on the fine chain, whose square links interlock closely. That way, the stone can move and keeps finding its way back to the center as you wear it. You choose the length when you order: 45 cm (17.7 in) or 40 cm (15.7 in).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning of the Stone\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn ancient Egypt, carnelian was linked to the sun god Ra, and finds from the tomb of Tutankhamun show how highly the stone was valued at the time. Roman officers wore it as a seal stone in their rings. By tradition, it stands for a zest for life, courage, and drive. As a gemstone, carnelian has been part of people's lives for more than five thousand years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCaring for Your Carnelian Necklace\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pendant and chain are water-resistant and suitable for everyday wear. To make your necklace last as long as possible, avoid prolonged contact with salt water and chlorinated water, as well as perfume, lotions, and harsh cleaning products. After swimming in the ocean or a pool, it's best to rinse the necklace with clean water and dry it carefully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCarnelian should not be cleaned in an ultrasonic cleaner or with steam, and it should be protected from high heat and sudden changes in temperature. Constant direct sunlight can also affect the color of treated chalcedony over time. Store your necklace dry and apart from harder pieces of jewelry, and the warm orange-red and the surface will stay beautiful for a long time.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Handmade Art by Carola","offers":[{"title":"Gold \/ With chain \/ 45 cm","offer_id":55276983419209,"sku":"KAR001","price":181.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold \/ With chain \/ 40 cm","offer_id":55276983451977,"sku":"KAR001","price":170.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold \/ With chain \/ Pendant only","offer_id":55276983484745,"sku":"KAR001","price":181.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold \/ Pendant only \/ 45 cm","offer_id":55276983517513,"sku":"KAR001","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold \/ Pendant only \/ 40 cm","offer_id":55276983550281,"sku":"KAR001","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gold \/ Pendant only \/ Pendant only","offer_id":55276983583049,"sku":"KAR001","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ With chain \/ 45 cm","offer_id":55276983615817,"sku":"KAR001","price":147.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ With chain \/ 40 cm","offer_id":55276983648585,"sku":"KAR001","price":147.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ With chain \/ Pendant only","offer_id":55276983681353,"sku":"KAR001","price":147.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ Pendant only \/ 45 cm","offer_id":55276983714121,"sku":"KAR001","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ Pendant only \/ 40 cm","offer_id":55276983746889,"sku":"KAR001","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ Pendant only \/ Pendant only","offer_id":55276983779657,"sku":"KAR001","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0744\/1419\/5003\/files\/1_54a3ef7f-f049-486a-84b5-809a3de473f2.png?v=1788761841","url":"https:\/\/by-carola.com\/en-int\/products\/cylinder-carnelian-necklace","provider":"Handmade Art by Carola","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
