Crafted Without Compromise
Designed and finished by hand in our San Diego studio. Small-batch. Woman-of-color owned. The stone is real, cut from raw mineral — not glass, not resin, not printed to look like stone.
Living With It
Malachite is soft as stones go. Keep it dry; wipe it down after wear to lift oils and lotion. Keep it off chemical cleaners, perfume, chlorine, and seawater — they dull the finish. Store it on its own so nothing scores the surface. With simple care, it will last for years.
Comes With
- Recycled cotton tote
- Hand-stamped brand story card
- QR catalog card
Ships in recyclable packaging, ready to give.
