Natural Agate is a beautiful natural chalcedony stone, classified as a semi precious gem and has been used by people as early as the ancient Egyptians in and before 3000 BC. Agate is still cut, shined, and shaped in the same ways it was in ancient times, and used in many of the same ways.Carnelian is a brownish red to red-orange variety of chalcedony or cryptocrystalline quartz. Its name is believed to come from a variety of cherry known as kornel.The distinctive red-orange color of carnelian is a result of trace amounts of iron. Sometimes the name Sard is used to refer to the darker colors of carnelian, though there is no clear distinction between carnelian and sard. Natural Carnelian material may be heated to enhance color and still keep it natural looking.The most important carnelian deposits are found in Brazil, Uruguay, India and Madagascar.
