The square ones look like dyed agate, and carnelian is pretty much unbanded agate so close enough. The other looks like a really low-grade...
The stones are dyed and stabilized turquoise and red-dyed something-or-other, looks like. I'd be guessing Nepal for an origin, but someone who...

I like him far better than the other kind. He eats bugs. And he's fuzzy.
It's definitely silver and over 100 years old. I've never known where that particular style of "knifewing" pin came from. The stone could be a...
A) not old at all and B) not an earthly. Bombay Company maybe???
