{"product_id":"carnelian-crystal-butterfly-wire-wrap-pendant-copper","title":"Carnelian Crystal Butterfly Wire Wrap Pendant Copper","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere's a reason the butterfly has been a symbol of transformation across so many cultures and centuries. It doesn't just change, it dissolves completely and rebuilds itself into something new. This pendant pairs that symbolism with Carnelian, one of the most energizing and motivating stones in the crystal world, and the combination is hard to argue with. The copper wire is bent and coiled by hand into the butterfly's wings, body, and antennae, with the warm Carnelian stone nestled at the center as the focal point. The result is a piece that's as much about what you're becoming as what you already are.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStone:\u003c\/strong\u003e Genuine \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/carnelian-crystals\"\u003eCarnelian\u003c\/a\u003e (iron oxide-colored chalcedony)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrame:\u003c\/strong\u003e Handcrafted copper wire, shaped into a butterfly by hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 76.2mm pendant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChakras:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/sacral-chakra-crystals\"\u003eSacral Chakra\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/solar-plexus-chakra-crystals\"\u003eSolar Plexus Chakra\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnergy:\u003c\/strong\u003e Motivation, courage, transformation, vitality, creative passion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncludes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ball chain, adjustable to any length\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis product is pulled at random by size.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWear daily or place on an altar dedicated to transformation and new beginnings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eChakra Connection\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarnelian works across two chakras that together form the engine of motivated, passionate action.

Remove the pendant before swimming or bathing to protect the copper wire from oxidizing. Carnelian is stable in sunlight and can be charged outdoors for short periods. For energetic cleansing, smudge with sage or palo santo, charge under moonlight, or place on a \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/selenite-crystals\"\u003eSelenite\u003c\/a\u003e charging plate overnight. The copper wire frame will naturally develop a patina with wear. Polish with a soft cloth if you prefer a bright finish, or let the patina develop naturally for a more aged, artisan look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this genuine Carnelian?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.

It's found across the world, with notable deposits in India, Brazil, and Madagascar, and it has one of the longest histories of use of any gemstone. Ancient Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans all prized it for its energizing and protective qualities, and it appears in jewelry, amulets, and signet rings across thousands of years of human history. Metaphysically, Carnelian is known as the Stone of Motivation and Courage, associated with vitality, creative fire, and the bold, decisive energy that turns intention into action. It's one of the most reliable stones for overcoming procrastination, self-doubt, and creative blocks, and its connection to both the Sacral and Solar Plexus Chakras makes it a natural choice for anyone working on personal power, creative expression, or transformation.
