Thanks very much to those folks who suggested setting up a FaceBook Page. It is “a must have” we know ! We are so busy here these days …..lots of ideas are emerging for organizations and companies who would like a specially commissioned stone and box either as gifts for their staff or corporate gifts for clients. We will design a gift box that immediately identifies with stone with the organization…

That was an amazing eclipse last week! We took MY STONES outside to see how they would react in this special light and they look so amazing !! The crystals in the Irish stone really make the stone come alive in the light ……It reinforced for us how special our stones of remembrance are to those who have lost someone …..Thanks to those who have supported us ….we are so delighted that these Irish Stones are now being enjoyed by folks throughout the globe !

for the love of stones
Everyone at some stage has admired a stone ….and as Irishmen Liam and I have picked up a stone somewhere in Ireland and it became ‘ my stone,’ …… In time our love of stones became My Stones and our the story begins !
We Irish are so proud of our land so there nothing more special as finding a beautiful stone ….for me…I used to collect stones on beaches and bring them home …..especially from my hols in West Cork and keep them as tributes to Summer days that I would yearn for as the Irish damp dreary Winter set in suburban Cork City !
I did go through a phase of covering my favourite in with shells imaging the stones as exotic creatures …..I still have a few of those fantastic creations ….they travel with me a core treasures as I move home etc ….they held pride of place in family room and no one dared to question this curious habit of covering stones with shells nor did anyone ever – for whatever reason – move them from their pride of place on the fire place – in this suburban house far from sea !
Today MYSTONES has brought out a different aspect of stone for Liam and I …we see their simplicity today …we love finding stones with fossils on them …..and we celebrate the itches of glaciations that appear on so many of MYSTONES as evident of stones that very real and very Irish!
My Dad passed away recently so holding a stone engraved with the word LOVE on it …is a comfort for me …while my God Daughter Lovely Lizzie loves the Tree of Life….Stone can represent so much ….it has been there for ever and we are so proud to be able to share MYSTONES with anyone that has a feeling that needs an expression or a friend that needs a giggle with some of our fun MYSTONES !
Welcome to the My Stones Blog
Ireland is a land shaped by stone and has stone deep at the heat of it’s culture. We felt that we could contribute to the already impressive range of Irish crafts already available with something old and new.
Working with Irish materials and Irish craftsmen we have created a new and beautiful way of bringing life to ancient stone. Modern laser engraving techniques have been developed to work with the natural minerals in the stone, the result is a stone encrusted with natural crystal that just love the light.
We are proud to give you an Irish product that is strong yet beautiful, dark yet light.
We can customise our stones to suit your needs so get in touch with us today to find out more.
