Product Details

These fingerless mitts are another piece inspired by the rocks on display at the Geo Centre in St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada. The piece of Anorthosite (used in the process of making aluminum and fiberglass) was mined in Ten Mile Bay in northern Labrador and was still in its rough-cut block form,  looking as it did when shipped from the quarry.
