Sculpture & Aesthetics
We have a soft spot for skulls. The hollow eyes, the cheekbones, that unmistakable grin. Somehow, there’s always room for another—especially when something about it catches you: the shape of the face, an unusual marking, the way it looks from one particular angle. That’s the fascination we bring to carving them.
That affection carries into the carving. We pay attention to the cheekbones, the shape of the jaw, and how the face changes as you turn it in your hand. Natural stone adds another reason to look closer: a vein crossing the brow, a change of color along the cheek, a detail you only notice after living with it for a while. We want to make the kind of skull we would stop to admire—and immediately start making room for.
Fluorite
Fluorite is a calcium fluoride mineral known for purple, green, blue, yellow, and colorless zones that may occur separately or together. Changes in color and transparency vary throughout the material, giving each carving a distinct arrangement.
I believe in fluorite’s energy of clarity, focus, and discernment. I would choose a carving for the part of my workshop where decisions happen, with the intention of separating what matters from everything asking for my attention.

Natural Variation & Care
Natural veils, inclusions and variations in color are part of the material’s character. Appearance may vary with lighting and screen settings.
Handle carefully because Fluorite is soft and has perfect cleavage. Avoid drops, scratches, heat, steam, ultrasonic cleaning, and soaking; dust with a clean dry soft cloth.
Support the carving by its main body or solid base. Protect the teeth, jaw and thin carved edges from knocks and pressure.
