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.
Red Jasper
Red Jasper is an opaque, microcrystalline silica-rich material whose red colors are commonly associated with iron oxides. Dark mineral areas, pale veins, spots, and bands may occur naturally and create individual differences in color depth and pattern.
I believe in red jasper’s energy of endurance, courage, and grounding. It is the stone I would choose when enthusiasm has worn off and there is still work to do—a companion for staying with something that matters.

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.
Protect it from severe impacts and abrasive contact. Clean with lukewarm water, mild soap, and a soft cloth, then dry thoroughly; avoid strong acids and alkaline cleaners.
Support the carving by its main body or solid base. Protect the teeth, jaw and thin carved edges from knocks and pressure.
