Hi, I'm Shane - the Bald Man behind Bald Man Rocks. It all started when my 5-year-old grandson got me looking for "cool rocks." Next thing I knew, I was finding cool rocks of my own and learning how to cut and polish them. Today I collect rough stone from all over the world, slab it on my trim saw, and shape and polish every cabochon by hand here in Washington's Columbia Basin. No mass production, just one grandpa turning rough stone into something worth wearing or collecting. Each piece is one of a kind, so what you see in the photos is exactly what you'll get. Thanks for supporting a small lapidary shop!
