Gemstone Serpentine and Onyx Bird Figurine Sculpture Pair, "Parrot Love"
Cesar Gonzales captures the instinctive and yet magical allure of parrots engaged in courtship. Standing on a glistening white onyx tree trunk, the birds show off their detailed feathers and exotic plumage, which is mainly carved of serpentine. Accented with red jasper and black onyx, one of the parrots features a sodalite beak. They see through glass eyes and stand on shiny brass feet.

"Had this for a few years"





Maybe it?s just life, but this is a fairly large crystal. Since I?ve had it, my quality of life has overall improved. Have had ups and downs but overall it?s been an improvement or sense that the challenges in life aren?t insurmountable. If there are any metaphysical properties, I?m certain they?re working.

"Gorgeous!"





I ordered the garnet pyramid because its my birthstone. Its gorgeous! The surface is smooth and satiny and the crystal has interesting designs and colours. Its heavy for the size. An interesting conversation piece, and I also meditate with it. Love it! Im considering getting another crystal pyramid.

"I learned to carve stone from a friend. In turn, I have taught my son and many of my workers the art of stone carving. When one of my artisans leaves to start a workshop of their own, I feel great pride. It means that the stone art of Peru will live on. Stone carving records the history of Peru and the Andes. Even though we now use machinery to bring our hand drawings to life... the stories the stones tell and the motifs we incorporate have been with us since pre-Inca times."
