Handcrafted by Toby Jacobs
Unique objects for consciousness, coherence and energy work.
The objects
I make these objects slowly, individually and by feeling rather than by a fixed design.
Each begins with something found in nature — often wood with its own history. A natural crystal, hidden elements and the geometry of the final construction develop around it. I call them Coherence Artifacts.
Some are amulets, made to be worn close to the body. Others are held as instruments for meditation, contemplation, energy work or healing practice. They are not simply decorative objects, but personal tools through which attention and intention can be focused.
The making
01
It begins with a piece of wood found in nature — sometimes in a mountain forest, beneath an old tree or in a place with a particular character. I may not know what it will become, only that it should be kept.
02
I spend time with the material. Its grain, balance and natural form begin to suggest the object within it. The process comes through observation and feeling rather than a fixed design.
03
A natural crystal is selected for the relationship it forms with the wood. Other elements connected with the story of the piece may be placed between them, partly or completely hidden.
04
The materials are joined through carving, thread, leaf, copper or solid gold wire. I keep working until the geometry, weight and character of the whole object feel balanced and complete.
A defining work · Bespoke commission
A hand-carved oak construction bringing together gem-quality natural formations of tanzanite and watermelon tourmaline, a ten-carat rough diamond cube, solid gold wire and secret elements held within the piece.
Created as a bespoke commission many years ago, it is not available. It remains one of the clearest examples of this work: rare materials are important, but the artifact is defined by the balanced relationship between them.
Private collection
The geometry
The value of an artifact is not simply in its materials. It is in the relationship between the shape of the wood, the crystal formation, the hidden elements and the geometry that connects them.
I also think of these as Aetheric Coherence Tools: physical structures through which consciousness and Aether may be focused. You may understand that energetically, symbolically, psychologically or spiritually. What matters most is your experience of the object.
Coherence Artifacts are not medical devices and are not intended to diagnose, treat or replace medical care.
Every purchase goes directly to supporting the studio: the research, the materials and the time each piece takes. If you are drawn to a piece and the price is not possible right now, please write to me anyway.

The latest artifact
Natural aquamarine, deer antler and coiled gold
A natural aquamarine crystal joined to deer antler, with a double coil of gold-plated copper wire. The internal coil is a darker gold running one way; the outer coil a lighter gold running the other.
Sand from a Tibetan sand mandala is held inside the construction.
The collection
Each piece has its own materials, history and construction. A short film for each artifact is coming soon, and more pieces are being made as new work is completed.

Coherence Artifact
Natural gem-quality golden topaz crystal in matrix, joined to wood found in a powerful place at the base of Mount Teide in Tenerife, with yellow flower petals from that place. The wood was found in the middle of a white sand area where nothing else was around.
Coherence Artifact
Peacock aura quartz — titanium-coated natural quartz — with an oak base and a carved symbol, finished with an apophyllite point and copper hanging hook. Secret elements are held within the artifact for vibration and coherence.
Coherence Artifact
An oak trident branch with natural points of amethyst, citrine and danburite at its three corners, and rough bloodstone — green jasper — at its centre. Bound with natural leather and containing secret elements.
Coherence Artifact
Natural oak joined with leather to a natural quartz point carrying an additional formation of tiny rose quartz crystals. Secret elements are held within its construction.
Coherence Artifact
A slightly translucent, self-healed purple sapphire crystal of approximately forty carats, held inside a carved oak root case with inset gold leaf and bound with cord.
Coherence Artifact
A self-healed, gem-quality natural green apatite crystal held inside a hand-carved oak root shell with inset gold leaf.
Coherence Artifact
Natural quartz with black tourmaline rutile at the tip and a red tourmaline flower formation at the opposite end, set on an oak branch with pure solid gold wire and embedded secret elements.
Coherence Artifact
An oak branch hand-carved into a ring, set with a natural sapphire formation and a polished garnet crystal, connected with pure solid gold wire.
Coherence Artifact
A near gem-quality, rare self-healed natural ruby in the shape of a heart — a formation that makes it extremely rare. Held within a hand-carved oak root shell with inset gold leaf and pure solid gold loops. Thread closes the two halves around the heart-shaped crystal.
Presentation
Every artifact is delivered in a wooden protective and presentation box, made to hold the piece safely when it is not being worn or held.
Authenticity
Each piece arrives with a certificate of authenticity signed by Toby Jacobs.
Bespoke artifacts
A bespoke artifact begins with the person rather than an existing object. Their intention informs an intuitive process through which the wood, crystal, natural elements, geometry and method of connection are selected. The result is not a standard design with a name added to it, but a completely individual piece.
Ask about a bespoke artifactThe practice
Every artifact takes time: to find the materials, understand the relationship between them, construct the geometry and know when the piece is finished. Each completed work is both an object and a record of that process.
