worry stones

$20.00 - $25.00

Each Worry Stone is unique for a few reasons — I used only my thumb to sculpt these tiny pieces, then hand painted each one using subtle cues from their form to create the lines, added just the right amount of glaze to then sit in a 2300 degree kiln to come out as stoneware.

It was remembering my travels to Greece as a teenager where I was first introduced to The Worry Stone. I purchased a few and used one throughout my travels to calm teenage angst — my guess of their origin is akin to mala or rosary beads, the beauty in repetitious movements — they hold precious little things very well too.

Now I keep one of these stoneware pieces in my pocket to ease anxiety.
