What if I don't see the stone I need on your
site?
If you are in need of something you don't see on our site? Just get in touch
with us either by email or by phone 705 562-GEMS (4367) and let us know what you are looking for.
We may be able to locate just what you are looking for and will work with you -
sending you photos and information on the gems we can locate for you.
What if the necklace that comes with the
gemstone is the wrong colour? Or the wrong size?
When you are ordering, there is an area in your shopping cart that you can
add comments - or you can just send us an email with your
request. After all, we are all different sizes and shapes and sometimes we need
something a little "special".
Is it really hand made?
Yes - every piece of gemstone jewelry on our website has been hand made.
You will receive the item in the photograph. The only things that we do not make
here in our shop are the pewter amulets, sterling silver amulets and the body jewelry (the
parts that go through your body - we created or added the charms you see). And it is
hand made by "us" and not another company that we purchase from.
Do you cut and polish your
own gemstones?
Not all the time....If it's a stone that we've run through our own polishers?
It will tell you right on the product description. When we don't have the time to
polish our own, we hand pick our gemstones (in person!) at a supply shop. We do our
very best to make sure that you get the best stones we can find.
Can you make custom jewelry?
Yes, we can combine certain types of stones to make something special just
for you. But please understand, we are not silver-smiths and can't design shapes and
add stones - I get a lot of requests for some interesting items that really do require
someone who can work with hot metal and shape it into particular shapes (like making hand
made dragons and so on). We can combine gems for bracelets, amulets and more! So
don't be scared to ask. Click here for more details
on custom jewelry options.
Hey, do you make up all this
information on your site?
Nope.. we spend a lot of time doing extensive research on each of the stones
we use. We have our own personal library (here in the studio) where we draw a lot of
the information you read here.. We've spent hours and hours going through each and every
one of our books so we can offer you this information.

come back to us over the years to let us know how particular stones have helped them -
every experience is individual and wonderful to hear about. (And yes, I do use them
as well.)
Can I use your images or

Um, sorry, but no. All images and text are property of Wicked Stones.

need them. We do not allow direct copies of our pages - we like our standings at
Google.
What is your Privacy Policy
- Will you SPAM me?
We're pretty frustrated with the amount of SPAM we get in our own in-boxes. So we
won't do that to you. The only thing we'll ever do is send you occasional
newsletters (if you sign up). Your email address and all information you give us
during a sale, is safe and sound. If you'd like to sign up for our newsletter? Just
send us an email with
"Newsletter Sign Up" in the subject line. (We only send them out a couple
of times a year so you wont get bombed every week).
Do you have a Newsletter?
If you'd like to sign up for our newsletter? Just send us an email with "Newsletter
Sign Up" in the subject line. (We only send them out a couple of times a year
so you wont get bombed every week). You'll find special deals, information about
rock hounding and other tidbits we figure you might find interesting and add them in.
They wont arrive very often as we're usually out picking rocks and playing with
stones.
Are you Earth Friendly?
Yes, we will use recycled boxes if your order is large enough to fit in one.
We believe in re-using shipping material when we can. So don't be alarmed if there
is Ricearoni or Mac and Cheese on the side of your box. Mother Earth needs all the
recycling help she can get.
If you have any questions that you don't see answered
here? Just send us an email. Who
knows? Maybe your question will end up going in our FAQ. |
