It has a long history of use in ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, and medieval Christian tradition associated the red spots with the blood of Christ, making carved religious bloodstone objects historically significant. Principal sources include India, Brazil, Australia, the USA, and China.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuturaSol Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach natural stone is selected for its authenticity, geological integrity, and energetic clarity.
