{"product_id":"faceted-carnelian-beads-gh72","title":"Faceted Carnelian Beads","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere is something ancient in the colour of carnelian, a warmth borrowed from desert earth and kept alive in stone.\n\nCarnelian has been prized across the Indian subcontinent for millennia, turning up in the excavations of Harappa and in the bead-workers' lanes of Khambhat, Gujarat, where artisans have shaped this stone by hand for generations. This necklace honours that long tradition: each bead is individually faceted, its surfaces cut to catch light at shifting angles, deepening the stone's characteristic burnt-orange into something almost molten at the centre and translucent at the edges. The beads measure approximately one inch (roughly 2.5 cm) each, strung together into a 17-inch (approximately 43 cm) length that sits precisely at the collarbone. At 220 grams, the necklace carries a pleasing, settled weight, the kind that reminds you something real rests against your skin.\n\nWear this over an ivory Chanderi kurta for a winter lunch, where the amber warmth of the stone reads as an heirloom pulled from a grandmother's jewellery box. For evening, layer it against a deep burgundy silk blouse, and let the facets do their quiet, luminous work in candlelight.\n\nThe free-size string accommodates most necklines without adjustment. The faceted finish is smooth to the touch and resistant to the minor abrasions of daily wear. This is a piece that asks very little of you and offers, in return, a centuries-old conversation between hand, stone and light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 17.0\" String, Average Bead size 1.0\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 220.0 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e GH72\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Exotic India","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67671139123420,"sku":"GH72","price":1442.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0842\/4082\/6588\/files\/faceted_carnelian_beads_gh72.webp?v=1791452377","url":"https:\/\/exoticindia.co.in\/products\/faceted-carnelian-beads-gh72","provider":"Exotic India Jewelry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
