Founded in 1999 by Tom McGuire, Fossil Bluff began as a small workshop in Texas dedicated to preserving the art of Masonic craftsmanship. Each piece is handcrafted using traditional techniques passed down through generations.
Our artifacts are more than objects - they're vessels of history, carriers of symbols, and touchstones for contemplation. Every curve, engraving, and finish tells a story of dedication to the craft.
