About TouchStones
"Touch" has
such diverse implications...physically, mentally, spiritually…and in
the process of creation, each of our pieces has been "touched" in those
ways...by hand, heart and spirit. Our patrons have been "touched" by the
artwork and the message, and in turn use them to "stay in touch" with
their own feelings. Though touching often involves reaching-out, these stones are meant to
be held close. (Except when they are given to loved ones - including
pets - so they might also be "touched.") With the exception of a
few components, everything is made in our Michigan workshop.
. . . . . . . . . . . . They can be found throughout the store, in various collections.
"Stone" provides
the earth element, grounding, physicality, and energy. We use
ethically-sourced natural stones and gemstones (never gems), glass
nuggets, sterling silver, bronze and copper (never gold). Most of our
touch stones are under $50 and each is unique. Others are combined to create unique necklaces, chaplets, bracelets and more.
(Pictured is an example of some of the gemstones we use in addition to glass and beach pebbles.)
A portion of our profits is donated to appropriate worthy causes each year.
Note: Because they are not mass-produced, the pieces are not "perfect." We use a "cold-fusion" process to bond our images to the stone or glass. We feel this aspect adds character and style. Also, because each is
slightly different, what is depicted is probably not exactly what you'll
get. (We do offer a full refund if you are not satisfied.)
Adapted from our Anachrons, each piece is unique and signed or initialed by the artist. (We're happy to consider custom orders.)
You may order TouchStones separately or combined with cords, necklaces, key rings, book marks, etc.
