About Anachrons
We've actually been offering "touchstones" for years, scattered under various names, including spirit stones, spirit tags, gemstone pendants, amulets, etc. Finally we have organized them into "modular units" that can be purchased separately or combined with a necklace, cord, key ring, book mark, etc.
The word "Touchstone" has
several meanings, from "a basis-for-comparison" to a Shakespeare character. Taken separately, however,
the words "touch" and "stone" have quite different connotations.
has
such diverse implications...physically, mentally, spiritually…and in the process of creation, each of our pieces
has been "touched" in those ways...by hand, heart and spirit. Our patrons have been "touched"
by the artwork and the message, and in turn use them to "stay in touch" with their own feelings.Though touching often involves reaching-out, these stones are meant to be held close. (Except when they are given to loved ones--including pets--so they might also be "touched.")
provide the earth element, grounding, physicality, and energy. We use ethically-sourced
natural stones and gemstones (never gems), glass nuggets, sterling silver, bronze and copper (never gold). Most
of our touch stones are under $50 and each is unique. With the exception of a few components, everything is made
in our Michigan workshop. A portion of our profits is donated to appropriate worthy causes each year.
Note: Because they are not mass-produced, the pieces are not "perfect."
We feel this aspect adds character and style. Also, because each is slightly different, what is depicted is probably not exactly what you'll get. (We do offer a full refund if you are not satisfied.)

Adapted from our AnachronsTM, each piece is unique and signed or initialled by the artist. We're happy to consider custom orders.

we are able to get all the Touchstones together in a single collection,
