Two slices of geode at each ear, cut so the hollow centers show: a ring of deep plum around a core of raw crystal that catches light like sugar. No two slices are alike, because no two cavities form alike. Brass runs around each edge, following whatever shape the stone turned out to be.

What is a geode slice?
A geode is a stone that formed hollow, with crystals growing inward into the cavity. Slicing it opens that cavity, so you see a rim of solid color around a center of raw crystal. Because no two cavities form alike, no two slices are alike.
Will mine look exactly like the photograph?
No. Every stone is cut or broken individually, so each differs in outline, in the depth of its color and in the markings running through it. The setting and the arrangement stay the same; the stone is particular to you.
How are the stones held?
Brass is worked over the edge of each stone until it grips on its own. Nothing is glued.
Will the brass darken over time?
It can, and many people come to like it. Brass responds to air and skin, deepening slowly in tone. Keeping the piece dry and storing it in its box slows that down, and a gentle wipe with a soft cloth brings the brightness back.

Gullye makes sculptural pieces by hand, in small batches, with master artisans in Jaipur. This piece is made again when the mould allows.
The specification
Brass darkens gently with time and touch, and an uncut stone keeps the surfaces it was found with. Wipe both with a soft, dry cloth. Keep the piece away from water, perfume, and lotion, each of which dulls a raw surface. Store it flat and on its own, so the exposed edges are not knocked against harder pieces. Store in the Gullye box.
