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.
Sodalite
Sodalite is a sodium aluminium silicate mineral commonly seen in royal blue, indigo, or blue-violet material with white calcite veins. It may resemble Lapis Lazuli but generally lacks that rock's characteristic golden pyrite flecks.
I believe in sodalite’s energy of logic, truth, and insight. I would choose it for my workspace when too many competing thoughts make it hard to decide, with the intention of thinking clearly and being honest with myself.

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 impacts, scratches, harder quartz-based stones, acids, and prolonged soaking. Clean with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth and dry promptly.
Support the carving by its main body or solid base. Protect the teeth, jaw and thin carved edges from knocks and pressure.
