The Blue Bird Mine occupies a fissure zone in granodiorite. In places it has been intruded by small andesite dikes. The Azurite, Chrysocolla and Cuprite was discovered in the early 70's when the mine was being worked for Copper. The colors were so beautiful that it caught on with the rock and lapidary trade and has produced many beautiful stones and carvings. This material has been under 60 feet of water since the late 70's and therefore has been inaccessable to collect for years. All that you find on the market today if from old collections.

Using high magnification lens we capture images deep within the microscopic typography of the stone and can transport the viewer into a micro world, far beyond what the naked eye perceives. Then we transfer those images onto luxurious fabric for "Stone Scarves”! Chiffon, lightweight and translucent, is the material of choice for our scarves as it allows for the printed design to be visible on both sides. The ultra-sheer fabric is printed using ecologically-safe transfer sublimation inks that provide vibrant color and strong wash durability. The printing process consumes no water and uses non-toxic bio-degradable inks. (We recommend washing machine with phosphate free detergent on a warm or cool delicate setting. Tumble dry low or line-dry) 

Select size either (approximately) 36"x52" or 26"x72 and we will ship your beautiful scarf to you!

All of our macro photographs are of our own stone; cut and polished, exposing the natural beauty inside.
