Collection: Heliotropes

Heliotrope, often called "bloodstone," is a dark green variety of chalcedony with red spots that sometimes resemble dripping blood drops. Since ancient times, this stone has been considered a very powerful amulet symbolizing life force and protection. The name "heliotrope" comes from Greek words meaning "turning toward the sun." In esotericism, it is regarded as a symbol of sacrifice, inner strength, and dedication to well-being. Heliotrope is often chosen by those seeking to renew their emotional and spiritual balance, especially when it is necessary to find new strength.
