Free-Form Designer Cabochons

These gemstones are hand picked from the surface of ‘The Carver’ agate field near Alpine, Texas.  They are 100% natural, sustainable, and collected without any mining or digging of any kind, therefore, they are environmentally friendly.  Because these gems are 100% natural, the color you see in each stone is exactly what nature produced….no artificial enhancements.  These gemstones contain natural flaws, imperfections, and inclusions which is exactly how nature created them.  You can read about ‘The Carver’ agate field on this website.  And please visit The SHOP to see more.

 
The Bracelets

The Bracelets

The bracelets are free-form designer bracelets. I do not produce perfect stones, but rather natural stones that are individually one of a kind PIECES OF ART created from ‘The  Carver’ agate field in the far West Texas desert.  Since each bracelet is unique, I cannot duplicate bracelets presented here. I will periodically bring to the site new bracelets and new stones. I only make a new bracelet when I cut and polish a stone which inspires me to create and design a piece of jewelry art that showcases that stone. These bracelets are best able to showcase the extraordinary agates from the “Carver.” You can view all of the available bracelets in The SHOP.

The “Carver” agate find is diverse, colorful, and unique. A wide range of colors is available in the stones found in this field, and the stones themselves are diverse and include geodes, jaspers, and chalcedony. More about the geologic make-up of the “Carver” can be found in the official report about the field. You can view examples of the diversity of the field at the Galleries Page, which lists the wide variety of galleries created to display the amazing variety found in this unique and very special agate formation.
