How a Piece Comes Together

A Setting Built by Hand, Not Cast in a Mold

Every piece starts as raw wire and a chosen stone — shaped and wrapped by hand, not poured into a mold.

The Stages

Choosing the Stone

Every piece begins with a stone chosen for its color, character, and the way it catches light.

Shaping the Wire

[PENDING: confirm actual wire-shaping tools, gauge, and technique — see CONTENT-READINESS.md, Process → Wire-shaping tools, wire gauge, and technique.]

Finishing

[PENDING: confirm whether pieces are sealed, coated, polished, or left raw — see CONTENT-READINESS.md, Process → Finishing method.]

What Goes Into a Piece

Natural stone. Copper wire. [PENDING: confirm whether metals beyond copper are used, and any sourcing claims — see CONTENT-READINESS.md, Process → Metals beyond copper / Stone sourcing. Do not claim ethical/local sourcing without evidence.]

Natural stone. Hand-shaped copper. No two settings alike.
