Bruce Eichelberger hand melts vintage silver coins in his kitchen then meticulously hand castes, hammers and saws every single detail in every piece of jewelry shown on display here today.

Many of the stones are passed down from
his father who was an avid collector of stones.

The provenance of most stones are from mines in North American including but not limited to;
Sleeping Beauty, No. 8, Lander and others.

Bruce hand grinds each stone down to the cabochon shapes and the flat shapes, keeping an appreciation for the matrix each stone has. In keeping the matrix, Bruce intentionally uplifts of the provenance and history of each stone.

All of these are made with an extreme labor of love and the exhibit is intended as a showcase how
artisanal craft is equal to fine art in our gallery.

For this reason we will not entertain offers aimed to melt down
these pieces and all sales must wait
until the exhibit closes before pickup/shipment.
