Why Earth & Hammer?

Are you sick of the same old choices in jewelry materials?

…then you are in the right place! My name is Adam, and I am the owner and operator of Earth and Hammer Lapidary Designs. I have always had a passion for science and loved creating things, so when I returned to school to pursue a degree in Geology, I immediately fell in love with lapidary work.

Do you get excited about unique natural treasures?

By selecting specimens that excite my own fascination and curiosity, I can then create pieces that spark some of that same amazement in everyone that sees them. Each rock or gem is a snapshot into the history of our planet’s formation, and each purchase includes a card with information about the geologic history of your piece.

I personally cut and polish every cabochon and gem that I have for sale, and every purchase comes with a certificate of authenticity with a carefully researched description.

Have something else in mind?

If you don’t see what you are looking for or have a custom piece of your own design in mind, please feel free to get in touch with me!
