Carnelian Hand Carved Pumpkin Necklace

🎃 THE JACK O'LANTERN 🎃

There are many compelling legends of the Jack O'Lantern, with roots in the Irish Halloween tradition of carving demonic faces into turnips. While we won't get into Jack's history here, pumpkin lanterns are traditionally said to guide wandering family spirits home, while their frightening faces help ward off evil spirits. They are especially associated with autumn, when the veil between the living and the dead is believed to be at its thinnest.

Each pumpkin is unique, hand carved, and comes on your choice of recycled sterling silver (choose chain length 16, 18, 20, or 22") or recycled 9ct gold (choose chain length 16 or 18", or just the pendant with the recycled 9ct gold bail).

✧ CRYSTAL MEANING ✧

Carnelian has long been associated with courage, vitality, and confidence. Historically, it was believed to calm feelings of jealousy, envy, and anger while inspiring bravery in battle. Today, it is often chosen to encourage creativity, boost self-belief, and promote motivation. It is also thought to cleanse negative energy from other crystals while supporting personal power and a positive outlook on life.

Often connected to energy and enthusiasm, carnelian is a wonderful companion for busy days, helping to lift low moods and encourage optimism. It is also traditionally associated with passion and joy, making it a popular stone for rekindling enthusiasm, creativity, and warmth in both life and relationships.

Each piece is cleansed before packaging, and made with the best intentions to promote its specific energy and healing properties.
