Karen Lani's Biography

Picture
I have always been fascinated by the beauty around us, which symbolizes so much more than what we see at first glance.  Just like people, our stories are so much deeper than the first impressions.  I believe God speaks to us and is seen through the natural world created all around us from the sky, sun, moon, wind, rain, clouds, stars, oceans, deserts, sands, birds, animals plants, flowers, bees, butterflies and so much more.  There is something so special about looking and touching the stones and shells that were created within the earth that required hundreds of years to form.  There is nothing quite like it.

The semi-precious stones and shells used in our pieces, although once easy to find, are now becoming more and more scarce.  Each piece is originally designed with a little whimsy in mind and a one-of-a-kind design.  Often, you may find less expensive imitation stones of plastic or glass jewelry that have been mass-produced overseas by those who imitate the designs of independent jewelry artists.  There is something so very special about an art pieces that was produced by the heart and soul of the original artist.

The name Living Stones came from a verse in the Bible, which refers not actually to stones that are living but to a people who love Christ, not just in a building of stone but out in the world sharing love wherever they may be.

Thank you so much for browsing our collection.  Our designs were created to celebrate and capture this amazing area and treasure on earth along the California coastline.  Please feel free to touch and try on any of our pieces.  We have a gift box and bag available with your purchase.

Blessings,

Karen Lani
