A warm orange smooth round Carnelian is the glowing evening sun.

Carnelian, also known as Carneol,  is a special variety of Chalcedony comprising microcrystalline fibers of this special Quartz.
It is dark red to brown in the shade and when light falls on it, it exhibits a wonderful bright orange glow

Carneol is a very desirable stone.
It was already popular in ancient times, for instance the seal ring of pharao Ramses II was a Carneol ring.
