Carnelian is a bright orange-red gemstone that is known for its energizing effect and is often used to boost creativity, courage and zest for life.
Corals have a deep spiritual and cultural significance in traditional Tibetan jewelry. The red precious coral (Corallium rubrum), which has been a symbol of life, protection and spiritual power for centuries, is particularly prized. In combination with turquoise and silver, coral beads are a characteristic element of Tibetan prayer beads(malas), amulets and ritual jewelry. As Tibet is a landlocked highland, coral was imported from the Mediterranean and the Southeast Asian region via centuries-old trade routes. Due to their intense red color, they were considered a valuable protective amulet and were used in Tibetan temples as well as in jewelry for lamas and nobles.

- Place it on a ruler and measure the inner diameter (from one inner edge to the other).
- Compare the diameter with the table to determine the ring size.
- Take a thin strip of paper or thread.
- Wrap it around the part of the finger where you want the ring to sit (not too tight).
- Mark the point where the ends meet.
