Welcome
The stone pendants and other objects featured on this website were hand-cut and polished or tumbled by Barry Venter of Nelspruit in Mpumalanga, South Africa.
He uses local and other semi-precious stones, inlaid into indigenous wood, to create these unique works of art.
Feel free to explore our galleries — these are just a few examples of the practical artworks Barry creates.
Each piece is crafted with meticulous attention to detail. Stones are selected for colour, texture, and shape before being set into beautifully finished wood.
The polished stones form intricate mosaics, resulting in patterns that are both elegant and unique — no two items are ever the same.
Whether bowls, tables, inlays, or decorative objects, Barry’s work reflects a love of natural materials and a dedication to craftsmanship.
