4 out of 5 starsI enjoy wearing this. The texture and weight is nice. It's comfortable, attractive, and is almost exactly what I expected. It was shipped with a handwritten letter, thanking me for my purchase. I would have given 5 stars if it had been the color I expected.
FYI for those who are trying to decide between materials. I ordered a green granite endless knot and the pics of it on my phone showed a really dark black with hints of a deep green. What I received is either so dark as to appear black, or really is just black marble. I wonder if my phone deceived me, since the pic does look more black on my desktop. Either way, there is no hint of green to it in any light or by any stretch of the imagination.
I would still purchase from this shop again. -

5 out of 5 starsI just received my second order from Carvedinstones: my best friend loved my necklace so much that he wanted a matching one too. Raja has produced a beautiful, handcrafted, perfect masterpiece. Now my best friend and I have these splendid matching (yet unique!) pendants that will make us feel close even when we’re far apart!

In the process of making this pendants. The first stage is to cut a slap of the stone then draw the design on the stone.
-
The second stage is to cut out the image using hand tool called fret saw. I only use hand tools to do this carvings.
-
This is the third stage, the edges of the stone is shaped with needle files and chisels then polished with sandpaper.
-
This is the finished unique pendant. I use chesils and files to carve the details on the stone after polished.

This is my workshop cum Market Stall in Camden Lock Market in London Where I carve most of my Pendants
I Hand-Carve This Pendants By Myself Out Of Natural Stone
My name is Nagarajan Ramachandran, know as NAGA. I have been carving stone since I was a small boy, maybe 6 or 7 Years Old. I was born in South India a town where stone carving is a part of life for over 1000 years, since the 7th century.
I grew up surrounded by ancient stone carvings in rock cut caves and temples, and was naturally inspired to take up the skills and practice, as my godfathers had done before me.
After completing my school education stone carvings was the natural choice for employment for me.
I was able to travel to the UK and set up a stall in Camden lock market in London, 20 years ago.
I work from the stall to sell and carve the pendants I make. On average I carve for 7 hours a day, still using the same techniques used centuries ago to create status of Hindu deities that my home is so famous for.
Over the years I have widened my repertoire to include symbols and characters from other ancient traditions including Celtic, Buddhist, Zodiac and Mythology. Whichever one you choose, you take away with you a small piece of history, carved by my hand. I hope you enjoy it.
Thanks for stopping by, All the best to you. Naga
