Geschiedenis

It has been over 5 years now since I professionally carve crystal Skulls out of various types of crystals and minerals from all over the world. (www.manus-skulls.com). Dozens of stones I’ve explored, loads of them I Love …… but there is no stone like the Preseli Bluestone from the Preseli hills of Pembrokeshire, Wales, United Kingdom. For most of us it’s well known as the ‘Stonehenge stone’ for the inner circle of this megalithic monument of the young Stone Age is proven to be mined 200 miles away ……..
The BIG question is Why? …… Why bother moving multi-ton stones, if there are other stones to be found closer by? ……. There must be something about this stone ……
I found out about them a short while ago …… it’s one of the hardest stones (7½) I have ever worked with …. And yet, when I am in a good trance …… I can carve it as it was to be a packet of butter ….
It’s the Best grounder I have ever came across and yet it can connect you with the past (ancestors) , the ley lines, the future, the galactic world …….. and let’s not forget ….. it is a Great healer as well ….. I am convinced that there is much more to be explored about this wonderful, magical dolerite ……
To me it is most and for all a Great inspiration for my Art work …… hope you like it!!

From the Heart,
