Been chugging right along with lots of custom stuff. This week obsidian seems to be very popular, both plugs and labrets. I can certainly see why, it’s a wonderful material. Also had a couple of great local custom orders, which are always super fun to do. It’s kind of a bummer that we don’t get to see most of the jewelry we send out being worn. If you have any of our stuff, send us photos!

First off we’ve got a nice set of four petal flower plugs carved from jadeite with black tourmaline inclusions. These were for a Virginia customer that has been driving over an hour to come visit us for custom work. He wanted Mayan style semi-square flowers and I was happy to oblige!

We recently finished up a beautiful set of petrified wood stone rings that turned out beautiful. They are ‘opalized wood,’ 3/4″ in size. My favorite petrified wood is that with growth rings and grain in it, so these certainly do it for me.

A set of very small obsidian pieces at 6ga, single flared with large faces. Beautiful translucency in these.

A set of very nice 1.5″ mahogany obsidian pieces, ordered on the site with a custom width request (5/8″).

A very pretty silver sheen obsidian oval labret, 1/2″ in size if I remember correctly

Here’s a 1″ Amazonite labret. Gorgeous piece.

And a smaller one, this time oval.

I’m sure there’s more I meant to post but it’s late and I’m tired and I can’t remember.. Haha. Anyway, we are having a cookout tomorrow at Onetribe, 403 Stockton St. Richmond, VA 23224. Come eat some grub (carnivore and herbivore fare provided), see the showroom and hang out with some chill folks. 5pm-9pm.
