The banding in gemstones are typical in some agates. Carnelian is known for its deep orange/red colour, but can also be opaque grey/brown. Sometimes they are 'colour washed'.
Price is often a good indicator of a gemstone's authenticity. if it seems to good to be true, it probably is.
From a design perspective:
Colour is GOOD
Colour is DESIGN
