Use and wear of Chinese Turquoise has been documented and dated back to as far as 1700 BC. Back then, it was mainly used to make carvings. Today, it has become the most widely used Turquoise in the world!

Much like most of the Turquoise found on the market today, Hubei has typically been stabilized. The process of stabilization involves layering epoxy over a stone to harden the surface and protect it. The main purpose of this process is to make it harder for the stone’s color to fade due to natural wear and use.

"These rare gemstone collars are a testament to master lapidary artistry—crafted by skilled hands in techniques that machines simply cannot replicate. With the artisans who perfected the combination of stone cutting, flint knapping, and precision drilling now retiring, these collars represent an irreplaceable piece of history. Use them to create a bold statement collar or break them apart for unique pendants or perfectly paired earrings."
- Jeff, Owner

"Meteorites are space rocks which make them extra cool. You don't need to have a lot of design skills or inspiration to make this necklace a conversation piece because it is already stunning. Meteorites are really heavy (duh) so using a bunch of them isn't practical, so this is a time when less really is more! In a more historical sense, Meteorites are fascinating because cultures around the world have used them to create ceremonial objects. Pieces of Meteorite have been found in ancient Egyptian tombs and were often regarded as gifts from the gods."

"I've always been partial to Turquoise because my grandfather had a great Southwestern jewelry collection. It was one of the first stones I remember learning about. It is still fascinating to me that we find these specimens in the ground that look like nothing and with a little work they are transformed into something so amazing and beautiful."

"I have such fond memories adoring my Grandma's beautiful opal ring as a child, opals have always held a special place in my heart. Years later after marrying a rockhound I fell in love with this stone all over again when Jeff shared with me why he thought they were so amazing, the formation of these beauties, their history, and the varieties in colors they're found to have."
