About Us

Hi! I am Gaia.  My name means Earth and Happiness and
I really think that about sums it up because that is me. 

I started this business in 2017 as a single mom with nothing but a pocket full of freshly mined Herkimer Diamonds and some scrap wire.  Fast forward to present day, we have added a few members to the family portrait! My husband Nico and I work really hard filling orders, homeschooling, and working on our fern-covered homestead.  We have two young sons that are as wild as they come, Wesley and baby Dean. In this paradise of West Virginia,  we spend all our free time out in the bounty of forest and waterfalls!

Thank you for your support past, present, and future!

You can enjoy our art in person at Bridge Day, Lost Appalachia, and Tamarack Marketplace

Ringing Rocks Mint is not responsible for stolen packages!  If your mailbox is not secure, please reach out to opt for signature-required delivery.

Space for customs is limited and subject to seasonal demands.  Please send a detailed message of your vision and budget.   All inquires will be reviewed and a quote will be made.  A 50% deposit is requested before I start.  Customs can be cancelled but deposits will be forfeited as those resources may have already been spent on project materials.  

Recommended Care 

As with most metals,  store in a cool dry place.  Direct sunlight, salt, and moisture will tarnish just about everything including sterling silver. Be gentle for optimum longevity.  

A jewelry polishing cloth is a great way to bring new luster to your pieces! 

For raw copper pieces,  you can do a quick buff with very fine steel wool.  Avoid contact with stones. Wear proper safety gear!
