PSST – Longbeach, the April club colour, comes out tomorrow, along with these beauties  in our online store!

Here’s something totally different from Jade :) A rich, deep red, inspired by an actual sample of Carnelian stone.

Going along with my theme of looking up stone meanings:

Carnelian (also sometimes referred to as cornelian) is found primarily in India, as well as various sites in South America. It is a variety of chalcedony. The most favorable pieces are a deep red to red-orange hue. Carnelian has a long and storied past, and was once considered strictly the property of the noble class. People holding a high social status were often buried with this gem stone. Source

Next up, Chrysocolla:

Also a rich and varied colour, based off a gorgeous blue/green stone,

Chrysocolla Gemstone meaning
Chrysocolla is a very beautiful stone with many beneficial energies.It is known as a healing stone among Native American Indian cultures where it was used for strengthening the body’s resistance and bringing about calm feelings where there is upset.Chrysocolla is a stone of peace, increased wisdom, discretion.It promotes level headedness, encouraging clarity of thought and a neutral, cool attitude during turbulence. It can be used to decrease nervousness and irritability.
