About Us
| Scenic Cabochons
As seen in a edition of the new UK "Bead" magazine
All stones are professionally cut and polished by hand using only diamond abrasives back and front, the material used on these pages is either very rare or no longer available, which makes it highly collectable as there are only a few pieces of each, most of which come from collectors slabs that were mined a long time ago.
|
All our material is ethically sourced, we do not import cheap tumbled stones from third world countries where people produce stones from slave labour. All our stones are hand cut we believe we are the only people in the UK doing this
