ORIGINALLY $92. Mehrgarh-adjacent ground. Balochistan stone, older than the names we've put on it. This bowl was never going to be smooth all the way through. The rim stayed raw on purpose — left at the edge where the carver's hand stopped polishing and let the stone show what it actually is. Honey-brown striation, a vein of burgundy running the line, against a body worked down to bone. This is one of a kind and the exact piece you will receive.

Set it where small things land. The ring you take off at the door. The change from your pocket. The thing you don't want to lose track of, given a place heavy enough to keep it still.

STRATA · VEIN · WEIGHT

STRATA — Single-source Balochistan onyx, hand-carved, finished in San Diego.
VEIN — Burgundy through honey-brown at the raw rim, bone-white body. No two veins run the same — the photo is a guide to this piece's color, not a contract.
WEIGHT — 2 lbs of raw-edge onyx.

⸻

Gently imperfect — sale piece. This bowl carries a fine natural fissure on the body and small mineral inclusions near the rim. Imperfections, not flaws — they don't touch how it holds or how it looks. Priced down to reflect them.
