ブラッドストーン

Bloodstone, also known as heliotrope, is a dark green variety of chalcedony with red spots, which resemble drops of blood, hence its name. The red spots are caused by the presence of iron oxide inclusions. This gemstone has been highly regarded for centuries, often associated with healing and strength. Bloodstone is believed to have protective qualities and is thought to promote courage, vitality, and purification. It has been used in jewellery, amulets, and carvings throughout history, valued for both its unique appearance and symbolic meaning.
