Hand crafted rock creations
Minnesota rocks, polished by hand and worn by family.
We shape, polish and wire-wrap every stone ourselves. It began as a hobby at home, and the family talked us into sharing it.
What we make
Two kinds of keepsake
Shaped Rocks
Hearts, worry stones and cabochons, cut and polished until they feel right in the hand.
Wire Weaving Pendants
Polished stones set in hand-woven wire. No two settings come out the same.
Our story
It started with a pet rock named Slingshot.
One Christmas, my twin granddaughters gave me a pet rock. I kept it on my desk at work, where the owner of the company took one look and named it Slingshot, because every rock deserves to be flung across the yard.
The name stuck. So did the rocks.
At home I was already polishing rocks and hand-crafting cabochons. My wife, my granddaughters, my daughters-in-law and the rest of the women in the family wore them. One Easter they told me the pieces were too beautiful to keep to ourselves, and that it was time to start a business.
The name puts the two together: the pet rock, and the family who gave the push. Read the whole story
