About Us

At Signature Stones, we are more than just purveyors of precious gems and minerals; we are custodians of Earth's hidden treasures and storytellers of a forgotten chapter in American history. Our journey began in the heart of Georgia, where the first major gold rush in the United States unfolded, predating the famous California Gold Rush. This lesser-known but pivotal event not only shaped the economic landscape of America but also left behind a secret legacy of diverse and valuable gemstones.

 

Our mission is to unearth these hidden wonders while honoring the delicate balance of nature. We employ innovative, environmentally friendly techniques, such as using nature's own prospectors - ants - to guide us to gem deposits. This approach allows us to preserve the topography and protect waterways, ensuring that our pursuit of beauty doesn't come at the cost of environmental destruction.

 

Each stone in our collection is more than just a pretty gem; it's a piece of living history, a testament to the Earth's geological processes, and a conduit of energy. We believe, as did the visionary Nikola Tesla, that crystals are not inert objects but living entities that embody a "formative life principle." This principle suggests a universal energy force that permeates all matter, connecting the animate and inanimate in a grand, cosmic dance.


Our collection features an array of stunning specimens, including gold, platinum, copper, silver, tourmaline, and gold-bearing quartz, each telling its own unique story. The gold trapped within quartz, for instance, serves as a visual reminder of the intense heat and pressure deep within the Earth's crust that forged these beautiful composites millions of years ago.


We take pride in our non-conflict approach to gem acquisition and our commitment to ethical practices. Each stone is carefully extracted by hand, cleaned using natural abrasives, and presented in its most authentic form. We believe in preserving the integrity of these natural wonders, allowing their innate beauty and energy to shine through.


When choosing Signature Stones, you're not just acquiring a gemstone; you're embracing a piece of forgotten Georgia history that played a crucial role in America's journey towards independence and prosperity. You're also tapping into what Tesla believed to be a universal energy field, where everything is interconnected and vibrates at specific frequencies.


We name each of our stones, recognizing them as individual entities with unique energies and vibrations. This personalization reflects our belief that these gems are more than mere objects – they are conduits of Earth's power and wisdom, waiting to share their stories and energies with those who possess them. At Signature Stones, we invite you to explore the deep, untapped knowledge that precious stones hold about human existence. Let these geological marvels inspire you, motivate you, and connect you to the grand tapestry of life and energy that surrounds us all.


Join us in celebrating the beauty, history, and profound significance of these extraordinary treasures from the Earth - whether you see them as divine gifts, cosmic marvels, or remarkable products of natural processes. These stones offer a unique connection to the world around us, inviting wonder and contemplation regardless of one's beliefs or worldview.
