This piece sits somewhere between tool and ceremony.
Available…message me if it speaks to you.

I’m beyond grateful to announce that I just took 1st place at the art show 🏆
This one means a lot.
As a Cherokee Nation ceremonial crafts artist, everythin I create carries intention, every strike, every detail, every material. To have my work not only seen, but truly understood, to me that’s powerful.
This piece represents the fusion of tradition and innovation flint knapping, natural materials, and modern techniques coming together in one form.
To everyone who has supported me, believed in me, or even just taken a moment to look at my work, thank you! This win is just the beginning.
More pieces coming soon. Stay tuned.

Shungite Flow - Work in Progress
Still working on the finish for this one.
The handle is made using shungite powder mixed into resin, giving it that deep black look. I paired it with natural wood, and the blade is hand-knapped from triple flow obsidian.
Everything is shaped and finished by hand here in Tulsa.
It’s getting close, but I’ve still got a little more work to do before it’s done.
I’ll post the finished piece soon.

Every piece you see here is made by hand. No shortcuts, no steel, just raw material, patience, and tradition.

I’m a Cherokee Nation ceremonial crafts artist, and this is a glimpse into my world.
obsidian blades, fractal veined resin work, petrified wood, and energy infused forms, all created with intention right here in Tulsa.

This booth setup is part of my application for the Cherokee Art Market, and I wanted to share it with you all because this isn’t just art, it’s a living practice.

Some of these pieces are available now, and I also take custom commissions.

If something speaks to you, trust that.

Handmade Obsidian Knife – 11.5” Ceremonial Blade – Flower of Life & Walnut Handle – Cherokee Nation Artist – One of a Kind - Etsy This Figurines & Knick Knacks item is sold by LithicLab918. Ships from Tulsa, OK. Listed on Mar 16, 2026

Hand-knapped obsidian blade with a sacred-geometry resin handle I just finished today.
Every piece I make is different — the stone decides the final shape, and I just follow its lead.
This one feels especially balanced. The way the light hits the obsidian ripple fractures is unreal in person.
If you had to name this blade, what would you call it?
And would you display this in your home or carry it as a ceremonial piece?
