The Golden Hour stack: how we match stones

Every stack that leaves the studio is matched in daylight, never under lamps. Colour temperature lies; the sun does not. Beads are sorted by band width, then by tone, then by translucency, and only then strung.

The rules

Three stones per stack, one of them warm. Metal spacers only where a stone changes. Elastic cord doubled and knotted inside a bead, never in a spacer. A keeping card in every box that names the origin of each stone.

What that gives you

A stack that photographs at golden hour the way it looks on the wrist at noon — and that can be re-strung by us, for free, when the cord tires.
