Smooth, flat grieving stone to carry with you wherever you go. Ergonomic design inspired by nature in a choice of three earthy tones.
SKIMMING STONE
The Skimming Stone is a flatter pebble made using a two-part mould so there is a joining seam around the edge. This enables there to be two smooth surface areas, front and back, as with a natural pebble smoothed over time by the motion of the sea.
It can be used as a carrying pebble in exactly the same way as the Pocket Pebble and comes in a little velvet pouch for safekeeping.
Pebble size: 5 x 3.5 x 2 cm
MATERIALS:
Our concrete is made using locally sourced crushed granite dust to which we add a polymer bonding agent to make the concrete frost proof and waterproof. Cement dye is added to create natural tones. The pebbles are waxed and polished at the final part of the process. As you handle the companion pebbles the natural oils from your skin will enhance the patina over time. You can use a quality furniture polish to care for your pebble and keep it shiny if you choose.
Size: 5 cm x 3.5 cm x 2 cm
The skimming stone is made using a two-part mould which is pieced together half-way through drying time so there is a seam around the outside edge. Photos shown are for display purposes only. Direct replication is impossible due to our handmade process. Colour match may not be exact as the pigment to cement ratio may differ slightly. Most importantly, as would be expected, with the addition of cremation ashes the cement aggregate becomes a unique mix. Each piece is a new creation. Your item will be a 'one-off' with its own markings which may include air bubbles that naturally occur in the artisan process - all part of its distinctive character and charm.
