The Full Story

BEHIND THE STONES

FROM SHORE TO STORE, WE HAND SELECT AND PROCESS EVERY PIECE, AND ARE INCREDIBLY PROUD OF EACH ONE. LEARN MORE ABOUT THE JOURNEY OF YOUR EVERMORE STONE BELOW.

 

IT ALL STARTS WITH A STONE...

Mission

We travel out to the coastlines of Ireland to find the perfect stoney beaches (Our favourite is Ballycotton, Co. Cork). We are very selective with our stones, and always ensure that no wildlife or habitats are disturbed on our search.

SCRUBBING UP NICELY

Once we carry the stones back from the beach, its time for a bath. We carefully wash the stones in a gentle solution to make sure there are no surprises with your piece!

LET THE FUN BEGIN

The next step in the process is our favourite: engraving. Any lucky stones destined to be pendants begin with a hole drilled through for the string. After that, each carefully researched inscription is then hand-carved into the stones surface.

NICE AND EASY

Once the inscription is complete, it's time for a paint job. The delicate lines require concentration and a very steady hand, but is always worth the time and patience.

V FOR.... VARNISH

After the paint has had some time to dry, the next step is varnish! Varnishing the stones not only makes the painted inscription pop, but also gives the beautiful appearance of the stones natural colouring when it's wet.

FINISHING TOUCHES

For our pendants and keyrings, the fun doesnt stop there. A faux- leather string is woven through the stone, and carefully secured to a stainless steel clasp or keyring.
