Cooking stones (also called pot boilers or heated stones) and discoidals (sometimes spelled discoidle or similar) are both types of stone artifacts with deep historical and cultural significance.

Cooking Stones are stones heated in fires and used to transfer heat for cooking, especially in cultures without durable pottery or metal vessels.

Discoidles  are carefully crafted, disc-shaped (circular and often bi-convex or flattened) stone objects, primarily associated with Mississippian cultures (roughly 800–1600 CE) in the eastern/central United States.

U.S. Shipping: One Flat Rate Per Order

Every U.S. order is packed in-house at our gallery and ships insured via USPS or UPS, with signature required on delivery. You pay one flat rate for the whole order, never per item:

  • Fetishes: $8
  • Jewelry & Pottery: $15
  • All other pieces: $20

Buying from more than one category? You only pay the highest rate in your cart, so eight fetishes and a pair of earrings ship together for just $15.

Oversized Pieces

Large or heavy pieces, such as big pottery, baskets, rugs and framed art, are custom-packed and shipped at actual cost. As a guide, that's anything needing a box larger than 12" × 12" × 12" or weighing over 5 lbs. At checkout, choose Oversized – Shipping Invoiced Separately and we'll email your shipping invoice, usually within 24 hours. Contact us for an estimate before you buy.
