Chalcedony Stone Beads | Smooth Chips | 4mm x 18mm

The chalcedony stone is from the quartz family, famous for its distinct hardness and durability. Blue chalcedony in particular is a prized member of the chalcedony group for its wide variety. These chalcedony beads are grayish blue in color, like mischievous shadow puppets playing on a wall. In antiquity, the chalcedony stone was called the Speaker's Stone because the famous Roman Cicero often wore a pendant of chalcedony while he made his great speeches. These chalcedony beads are a soft and neutral addition to necklaces, earrings, or bracelets that need some balancing out.

Because of its ancient status as the Speaker's Stone, the chalcedony stone is believed by some people in modern times to help aid communication. We have all been in situations where we want to say something, but we can not think of the right words to say. Perhaps these chalcedony beads would help, if you're inclined to believe in that sort of thing.
