    Although I have cut many stones, and do feel drawn to some stones, 
    I have never made metaphysical claims for any of them. To make
    therapeutic, medicinal or spiritual claims for stones in the absence
    of objective evidence supporting same is, in my opinion,
    irresponsible and misleading,  and  gives the impression that one's
    stated  beliefs are informed by the desire to move inventory. 

    There is only one, subjective,  metaphysical, spiritual claim
    regarding stones which I make unreservedly; when I cut and polish a
    really pretty rock, I am immediately elated. This joy in the beauty
    of stone is what I try to capture in my work, and communicate to the
    wearer.
