.Let me introduce myself…

I’m Paul Worthy, originally from middle Georgia, and a transplant to South Carolina. I live in close proximity to world class amethyst mines found in this great state and museum quality rutile from Graves Mountain GA.

I’m an avid rockhound that needed to find a purpose/end game for my vast collection, Therefore I started trading material with friends from the west coast such as agates and jaspers. I began cutting cabachons and faceting stones, teaching myself the art of silversmithing in order to create my own one of a kind settings for free forms.

As my mineral collection grew I quickly realized I needed an outlet for moving materials so that I could acquire new items for my artwork. Which has led me to here.

Always appreciative of my supporters and sharing the knowledge of the hobby, the proceeds from this site will also go toward video production from local digs and educational purposes. Stay Tuned! There is so much more to come!
