The Jaded Jeweler Story
Born from resilience and a love for lapidary, our jewellery blends raw earth materials with handcrafted wirework to create truly one-of-a-kind pieces.
Meet Gord
After surviving cancer and losing two fingers, Gord turned to jewellery making as a form of therapy — a way to ease the pain, keep his hands moving, and stay connected to creativity. What began as healing soon became art, with every wire wrap and stone placement helping him reclaim strength and purpose, one piece at a time.
We specialize in handcrafted, custom-designed jewellery made from raw stones, crystals, and minerals. Many of the rocks used are sourced directly by our team — from field to form — and wrapped in high-quality wire to create intricate, wearable art. Whether you’re looking for a piece with metaphysical meaning, a stone that reminds you of a place or person, or just something beautiful that no one else will own, we make jewellery that tells a story — yours and the stone’s.
Our Love for Lapidary
Proud Members for the Maple Ridge Lapidary Club
We’re proud members of our local lapidary club — a community of rockhounds, cutters, and stone enthusiasts who share a deep respect for the craft. Being part of the club means we don’t just work with stones — we study them, excavate them, and celebrate the process from raw mineral to polished piece. It keeps us connected to the earth, to the people who share our passion, and to the roots of everything we create.
