THE JOURNEY
From bedrock to your hands
Formed in the mountains of Washington.
Deep red garnet, blue and green nephrite jade, black jade, and rare quartz crystal formations — crystallizing in Washington bedrock long before anyone was here to find them.
Found by Theus & Austin, on foot, on our own claims.
A ¾-mile hike into a dry creek bed at Otter Eye. Years spent working the ridges above Darrington. Every piece we sell starts with someone walking into the mountains to find it.
Cut and finished by hand.
Every piece that leaves our bench was shaped by the person who dug it — not sourced from a supplier, not imported from an unregulated mine overseas.
WITH GRATITUDE
Thank you — Darrington Jade Festival 2026
That’s a wrap on this year’s festival. A heartfelt thank-you to our sponsors, the lapidary artists and miners who shared their craft, and everyone who came out to celebrate Washington jade with us. See you next year.
