What's going on @ Onetribe

We just picked up this large piece of rutilated quartz locally – it’s big enough to do up to 3″ plugs from. Slightly smoky with intense rutile on one side fanning into more dispersed but still plainly visible rutile toward the middle. Would make an amazing set of large plugs – I would like to make something between 2″ and 3″ before we cut it down for smaller pieces. It’s rare to find usable rutilated material this large so we’d like to make something equally rare from it. We can probably do Mayan flared pieces, very thick walled tunnels, or solid pieces from it.

Fancy!
I know I have a few “in the works” ideas going on right now, but that piece is gorgeous :)
Shoot me an email when you have a minute.

Thanks Jared

holy crap that is gorgeous material! i think a piece centered on that dark “hole” the rutiles are formed around would be jaw-dropping.

Would you guys be willing to make a 9mm x 16mm oval labret out of a small bit of it? :D Once someone hopefully makes gorgeous plugs out of it

Could you email me, when its time to make some smaller pieces, with some info about making a 5/8″ set of mayan flared plugs or mayan flared tunnels? Thanks.

Prior to the acquisition of this piece we already had material suitable for smaller items. Go ahead and shoot us an email and request pricing for those pieces and we’ll get you all fixed up. :)

Beautiful piece!! Hmm..i wonder if 1″ solid dished plugs could be made out of the top edge where there are fewer needles. that would be totally rad! i guess id say that about all the pieces made by Onetribe.
