Hello ladies! Can anyone tell me if their carnelian is actually bright red when worn against the skin? I’ve found that pictures taken with an iPhone have a very bright red coloration, but when the light is blocked from going through the stone (as it is when a bracelet is worn), and you view the piece in person, the color is a lot darker that the pictures showed.

A little bit darker but still bright. My last pic where it is around my neck was not taken with iPhone.
Mine is the same way. In the photos I take, it's a very bright red. On my wrist, it's a very sexy dark red! And then, when I wear it as a necklace, it's brighter again. I think that's the beauty of these translucent stones. My blue agate is also constantly changing.
Your carnelian red color is so GORGEOUS and GORGEOUS on you!
I think this is the best I've seen.Thank you. It changes colour with the light as VCAliverNYC mentioned.Your carnelian red color is so GORGEOUS and GORGEOUS on you!
Ok - so as usual my VCA choices are a journey onto themselves.
I had reserved a brighter TG/C/G set; but then while waiting, got to thinking ….
Really wanted earrings to pair with my Horse Clip (pendant) My horse has its own story but that’s for another day
Was waitlisted for a Tigers Eye Carnelian pair but then thought: why not this instead?
So I requested a darker stone earring to go with the color of my Horse’s carnelian coat. Earrings only.
This was hard to photograph but in person it’s a very close match - and I’m thrilled.
It has a autumnal vibe.

Got to see the whole set and I don’t think it suits me personally. Enjoying the eye candy shared and congrats to all the ladies who added pieces to their collection!
i know this is a really weird question but has anyone weighed their 2 motif guilloche RG carnelinan earrings? I might be getting them sight unseen but i am quite sensitive to how heavy earrings weigh. does anyone who owns this, also have a weighing scale at home? would really appreciate this!
