Sculpture & Aesthetics
Some skulls earn a place on the shelf; a little one can come with you. We like the familiarity of a skull pendant against an everyday shirt: that small grin, close enough to reach for without thinking. Choosing one often comes down to a particular face or a patch of color in the stone. Small things can become favorites very quickly.
Carving at this scale makes us pay close attention to what gives the face its character. The brow, eye sockets, cheekbones, and tiny teeth have to remain clear as the stone is shaped and polished. A metal bail at the crown provides the attachment point. We want it to reward a closer look, with enough detail to enjoy in your hand as well as when you wear it.
Rose Quartz
Rose Quartz is the pink variety of quartz, with its color commonly associated with microscopic fibrous inclusions containing iron, titanium, and phosphorus. Pale pink, peach-pink, and rose tones vary in translucency and may contain clouding, fractures, or other inclusions.
I believe in rose quartz’s energy of love, compassion, and self-love. I would keep it close on days when I am being harder on myself than I would ever be on someone I care about.

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.
Clean with lukewarm water, mild soap, and a soft cloth, then dry. Avoid strong impacts, thermal shock, prolonged strong sunlight, heat, and steam or ultrasonic cleaning on fractured pieces.
Avoid pulling or twisting the metal bail, and inspect the bail, cord and knots periodically. Remove the pendant before bathing, swimming, exercise or sleep. Protect the carved teeth and jaw from impact, and store it separately when not in use.
Shipping & Returns
Each piece is carefully packed to protect its carved surfaces during transit.
