Bloodstone and carnelian were traditionally set in watch fobs.
Bloodstone is deeply symbolic and sought-after. The green jasper has red inclusions of hematite. The red inclusions are said to resemble spots of blood, hence the name bloodstone. Christian legend refers to the ground being covered in the blood of Christ during the Crucifixion. Bloodstone is considered to be a powerful talisman giving the wearer courage & success.
Carnelian is said to imbue the qualities of courage and great physical power.
