    Ok I know very little about stone jewelry ...and I saw this as I was looking at it. It just looks . Someone tell me what kind of stone this is because I’ve gotten four different answers from other people. First I thought carnelian then maybe amber but the swirls don’t look like amber. Is it carnelian???

    The top long one is "eyeball" agate,banded agate,some of it could be carnelian.Best answer is chalcedony of unknown origin.

    The spacers are garnet. The orange ones are some sort of agates. What sort of agate... dunno. I'll defer to Holly on that one.

    I'm with the others.
    Agate/chalcedony type stones rarely look exactly the same. They can be matched, but not everyone thinks it necessary. Higher end carnelian (also a chalcedony) necklaces usually have matched stones.

    They could be Amber, they usually have bugs and other items in them.

    Welcome Curious girl.:)
    Genuine amber rarely has bugs in it, Chinese fakes often have bugs in them. In this case it is not Chinese fake amber, just the natural appearance of the agate-like stone.
    Amber is rarely this colour, but it can be distinguished from agate by the fact that amber is is not cold to the touch, whereas agate is.
