Description: Stone for Carving Here are 3 very nice chunks of soapstone. The measure about 1-1/4 to 1-3/8 inches square. Great for carving fetishes or beads or pendants, small pipes too. The pictures are different views of the 5 stones. This is for all five stones. The stone was sprayed with water so you can get a better idea of how it will finish. The last 2 pictures are dry. When it is finished it will look like the pipe bowls that are listed in our store. ******** People?s Affinity to Stones Ever since recorded geologic history going back to the Stone Age -- indigenous peoples from every land have depended on stones for a great variety of personal uses, such as for monetary exchange, and especially for domestic use like indigenous peoples of this continent still do. (Stone carvings, peace pipes) Today with hostilities all but over twixt Euro-Americans and ?Native Americans, other than past political differences still very controversial over broken treaties. There exists at present a friendly consciousness to trade for crafted articles and stones related to Native American art work, especially for peace pipes. Indigenous to the Chiricahua Apache Nation of the Southwest, Rudy?s interest in crafting with stones is directed towards enlightening others to appreciate the beauty inherent in the texture and grain of stones used for peace pipe bowls. Uppermost in his efforts for others use is, to select stones that are hard but not too hard as to make it a chore instead of a joy to shape and form. The most interesting scenario about stones, is how the texture and grain came about to create such vibrant tones and shades of color, that give each and every bowl it?s own beautiful and distinctive character. To think it took millions of years for stones to form boggles the mind! There is communication Rudy feels -- if but one listens to that spiritual voice coming from within the stone; it guides his mind eyes and hands. It can do the same for you! --- LISTEN! The stone you are bidding for or purchasing out of our Web store, awaits your love -- skill and patience for transforming it into a an art object of beauty that others too will admire. Especially by bringing forth spiritual life to a seemingly inanimate stone; that you will make sacred by care and devotion -- worthy of worship, love and respect! --- May the above help inspire you to succeed!inkfrog terapeak
