Earth Day: Stones That Last Forever

Beads are the oldest functional objects humans have ever made. They don't rot, corrode, or become obsolete — they get restrung. This collection celebrates the earth stones: moss agates with mineral dendrites millions of years old, petrified wood turned to quartz, volcanic lava, ancient carnelian from the same trade routes used 4,000 years ago, and raw specimens as the earth made them. $8 to $60.
