32 Hand-Carved Facets Born of Volatile Stone

Each coaster in our Jaipur Amethyst Coasters set begins as a rough slab of violet quartz, hand-selected for its depth of color and crystalline clarity. Inspired by the stone’s storied past—from Greek sobriety goblets to medieval talismans—our Jaipur artisans achieve the extraordinary: carving eight flawless facets into volatile amethyst (Mohs 7 hardness). This is a high-wire act of geometry, where natural fissures demand reverence and every angle risks fracture. Using traditional hardstone drilling tools, masters spend days shaping each octagon, then hand-polish all 32 edges to a silken, luminous finish. The result? Functional art where raw geology meets human patience—a set meant to ground your daily rituals in enduring beauty and quiet resilience.

Key Features:

  • Precision eight-facet geometry

Crafted with Geometric Precision: Made-to-Order Process
Creating octagonal perfection in amethyst requires unhurried mastery. Please allow 2–3 weeks for your set to be thoughtfully brought to life. This timeline honors:

  1. Stone Selection & Stabilization: 7–10 days to source and condition slabs, minimizing natural fractures.
  2. Facet Carving: 5 days per set to hand-shape 32 identical edges using diamond-tipped tools.
  3. Hand-Polishing: 3-stage finishing to achieve a protective, luminous sheen.
    Why the care? Rushing brittle stone risks cracks—and we believe every angle deserves integrity.
