Natural stone

Every bead is cut and polished from natural stone. Veins, cloudiness, internal fractures and shifts in colour are what the stone looks like — not flaws, and never two beads alike.

We sort rough by tone so that beads on one strand sit close together in colour. The variation of a natural material cannot be removed, and we do not retouch it away.

Hand-strung

Laying out the beads, stringing, knotting and finishing all happen by hand in the studio. Elastic is double-stranded, and the finish is passed back through and knotted.

Before a piece ships, every bead is checked: the hole is clear, the surface is free of chips, the knot holds.

What we state

Stone name, bead size, bead count and the metal used are as stated on the product page. If a piece has had a routine treatment, it is written on the page — we do not leave it vague.

Care

• Avoid prolonged soaking, perfume, alcohol and direct heat
• Wipe with a soft cloth after wearing; store separately, away from hard edges
• Take it off for sport, showering and sleep
• Have the elastic checked every 12–18 months
