Each die begins as raw stone. From there it goes through a multi-stage faceting process of careful cutting, grinding, and shaping to create the polyhedral form. The most time-consuming step is the polishing, where each facet is painstakingly smoothed and polished by hand on a series of progressively finer laps to achieve a glass like shine. From there, the numbers are sandblasted in and hand painted. No factories, no warehouses, no manufacturing lines. Each die is truly a labor of love made by my hands alone. I also document the entire process for most of my dice on my YouTube Channel!

Of course! You can use them however you like, whether that be for rolling critical hits at your table, or just displaying them somewhere safe. If you do roll them, I suggest you use a leather or felt lined dice tray, and roll them away from other dice. In my experience, it’s not the stone dice that chip themselves, it’s the other dice they’re with that chip them. If you’re careful, and take good care of them, they will last you years and years.

Almost all of my stone dice are sourced from local gem shows and vendors here in Utah. I also love collecting and working with many locally sourced stones that I find while exploring Utah with my family and friends. For gemstone rough that isn't naturally found in Utah, I purchase from local dealers or through trade shows and conventions. Utah hosts several shows throughout the year, and the major shows in Tucson are absolutely worth visiting for any gemstone enthusiast.

I have in the past! However, making a full set of dice out of the same gems/stones comes with a whole new suite of challenges that make the process difficult and time consuming. The first major hurdle is sourcing enough of the same type and style of stone to make a whole set, which can be difficult to ensure. Additionally, cutting seven dice takes seven times as long. This is fine, but when each die takes upwards of 40+ hours to cut and polish, this means a single full set of dice can take upwards of a month and a half to make. This also pushes the price out of many peoples affordable range. I may make more full sets in the future, but for now I'll be sticking mostly to just D20's.

The size of the dice vary from piece to piece, dice falling within the 20-40mm face-to-face range. For comparison, a standard D20 from a plastic set is typically around 22mm. Each stone is carefully chosen to ensure the most yield possible so some dice can come out much larger than a standard D20, and some a bit smaller, depending on the size of the rough stone. Each is hand cut, so differences in size are just a natural part of the process.

Many of my dice are handcrafted from stones that are naturally formed, so varying densities throughout are not uncommon. Most common plastic/resin dice are balanced tested with the saltwater method - placing a dice in a glass of salt water then spinning it several times and recording the results. However, this method doesn't work with stone dice since they're more dense than water and just sink to the bottom of the glass. It's important that if you take these dice to your table, you speak to your DM first to ensure they're alright with you using them.

Certain gemstones can be slightly more delicate than others. If you're worried about chipping, I'd recommend starting with tougher stones like quartz varieties (amethyst, rose quartz, etc.) or cubic zirconia. I'm always happy to advise you on the best materials for your needs!

Soft stones (such as fluorite, calcite, or malachite) should be cleaned gently with a damp microfiber cloth. Avoid submerging them in water, as some porous stones can absorb it. Hard stones (like quartz varieties, agate, or cubic zirconia) can often be rinsed with warm water and a mild, non-abrasive dish soap. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. For any stone, glass cleaner like Windex can be used sparingly to help remove fingerprints and restore shine. When not in use, always keep your gemstone dice in a soft pouch or lined box to prevent chips and scratches.
