This Bloodstone Palm Stone is a smooth, polished dome of dark green chalcedony flecked with deep red, shaped in the classic flattened oval to fill the palm. The green base ranges from forest to near-black, scattered with the rust-red spots that give the stone its name, and the polish gives it a soft, even sheen. Substantial and rounded, the Bloodstone Palm Stone has a reassuring weight when held.

Geological Information
Bloodstone, also called Heliotrope, is a chalcedony variety within the quartz family, silicon dioxide, with a Mohs hardness of 7 and a trigonal crystal system. Its dark green base comes from chlorite, and the characteristic red spots, which resemble drops of blood, come from iron oxide. It was used in ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome, and a medieval Christian tradition associated the red flecks with the blood of Christ, making carved religious bloodstone objects historically significant. Sources include India, Brazil, Australia, the United States, and China.
