Have it carved for you.
Our own workshop in Fujian, China, over 100 carvers, and natural stone bought as rough. That means we can cut a piece that does not exist yet — your design, your material, your size.
Commissions start at $2,000 USD
Work from the bench
A commission can be a variation on something below, or a form that has never been cut before. If you can describe it, we can usually quote it.

Small pieces
Sizes run from palm-sized pieces to carvings over 30 kg. Materials we hold as rough include amethyst, Turkish blue chalcedony, obsidian, fluorite, lapis lazuli, red jasper, rose quartz, crazy lace agate, aventurine and quartz geode.
Six steps, and you see it before you finish paying
- 01
Tell us what you want
Send a description, a sketch or a reference photo, along with the material, rough size and your budget.
- 02
Quote and timeline
We come back within two working days with a fixed price and an honest lead time. No obligation, no payment yet.
- 03
50% to begin
If you approve the quote, a half deposit puts the piece in the schedule. The balance is not due until you have seen it finished.
- 04
Design and stone selection
Our designers draw the piece for your approval, then we pick the individual block of rough it will be cut from.
- 05
Carving and polishing
Cut, shaped, detailed at the wheel and finished by hand. Your design is never shown to anyone else or repeated for another buyer.
- 06
You approve, then it ships
We send photos and video of the finished carving. Only once you are happy is the balance due — and shipping is on us, worldwide.
How you are protected
Commissions are carved in our own workshop — the same benches, carvers and materials behind everything in the catalogue. Nothing is sub-contracted out.
Tell us what you have in mind
You do not need a finished drawing. A rough idea, a photograph of something similar, or just a material and a size is enough for us to come back with a quote and a timeline.
Commissions start at $2,000 USD. Below that figure our catalogue is usually the better route — tell us what you are after and we will point you at the right piece instead.
We reply to every enquiry within two working days.
