I was I am I will be Me - Jewelry

Don't forget that most of the items that I will be posting now will appear on facebook.com/heliopolisrocks instead of here. The name suits us better.

We create gemstones and jewelry from Oregon Sunstones that we obtain directly from the local mines.

We will be sharing our space with Aperture of You Photography.

This is only one of the mines located down near Plush that you can dig (for a fee) at. You can also dig on the BLM land as long as it is for personal use (ie you aren't selling it).

If you do go down and find your own stone contact us and we will facet it for you, our rates are very reasonable.

If you don't want to get down and dirty we do that as well. We have stones ranging from just pulled from the ground and looked at to faceted and set in jewelry.

They are right EVERYONE that lives (or has lived) in Oregon should own one of our state gemstones.

Grant takes us to southern central Oregon – a landscape that’s marked by endless sage brush and juniper trees, but one of the few places in the world where visitors can dig Oregon’s State Gem!
