SOLD GRANITE DIREWOLD 14.5" x 12" For Game of Throne Fans, I made this magnificent direwolf. He is crafted from rare phyllite stone tile I scrounged from an old stone yard. The phyllite’s wavy, coarse cleavage liberally sprinkled with silver mica flakes made the perfect color and texture for the powerful, protective house Stark sigil. He has a Honey Calcite eye (abundance & Confidence), black Slate nose (Protection), white Marble teeth (cleansing, Healing & Serenity) and black granite background (Protection & Abundance).

Using just a wet tile saw, each of the 58 pieces were methodically cut and fit together. While phyllite is a softer stone, easy to cut, it’s also a foliated metamorphic rock that often split into thin layers during the cutting and grinding of each piece, requiring much patience and a little special stone glue to recreate the original piece depth. The silky luster of his honey onyx eye and smooth white marble teeth surrounded by rough phyllite fur gives this direwolf his ferocity and fierceness. The glossy, hard black granite background offers a stunning contrast to the wolf’s coarse phyllite fur. To maintain this sleek, clean precision, the direwolf will be cemented to the granite and grouted in.
