These stones were commonly used in fobs and often had family crests carved into them, they would have been worn on a gentleman's watch chain mostly for decoration.
The Carnelian stone has a rich deep red colour and the Blood-stone is a dark green with flecks of red in it.
Both of the stones are smooth and cold to touch.
Wonderful to hold and move around your hand.
A great piece, steeped in English history.
Note: Stones have not been removed from their mounts to preserve the integrity of the setting. All Diamond and Gemstone weights have been approximated by measurement and formula and may vary from actual weights.
