Our gemstone pendants are cut from mostly self-collected natural semi-precious crystals and minerals. Local Canadian Rocky mountain gems from far up the arctic circle to the south point of Vancouver Island. We also buy and trade interesting specimens with worldwide partners.
Handmade jewelry, what you find in the store, is available to purchase. Some stones are drilled and set with findings, but our preferred method is the modern and minimalist style of wire wrapping, which focuses on showing the entire stone size, yet holds it firm and secure in place.
We have a large collection of jewelry-quality raw minerals, ready to cut. Custom shape and size cutting is available.
Sorry, we do not sell raw stone, we use it or only trade it.
