Bracelet, Blue Lace Agate, 10 - 12mm nuggets

The chalcedony nuggets for this bracelet threaded on rubber are about 10-12mm; the nugget bracelet is 19cm long.

Communication, listening, and understanding are the themes for which blue chalcedony is used in modern stone healing. Blue Chalcedony is therefore also called the "orator stone".

The terms "Calchedon" and "Carchedon" are first used by Pliny the Elder in his Latin Naturalis Historia in the 1st century AD. Which stones have been described here, however, cannot be clearly identified on the basis of the descriptions. Over "intermediate stages" like Calcedon, Calzedon, Chalzedon or Kalcedon the name changed to the today common Chalcedon.
