My Story

Meet The Artist

Though there are many interpretations of the bridal gown as a symbol, to me, it embodies concepts of hope, love, and future promise. It marks the ability to step forward, together, and forge a new path, creating a vast collection of new hopes, ambitions, and dreams.

For me, the wedding dress represents change — in its purest and most powerful form. Through StoneWear Ceramics, I aim to share my work in a way that helps preserve the wonderful memories that define our lives.

Erika was absolutely amazing in creating this beautiful gift for my daughter in law. She took so much time and love in making sure it was a perfect gift and it matched her dress beautiful! Highly recommend!

My StoneWear Ceramics replica dress is simply stunning. I never thought I’d have this kind of reaction to seeing my wedding dress immortalized in stone, but it’s pure joy and beauty to see it and show it off in this beautiful form. StoneWear Ceramics is truly a priceless and unique gift made with so much love.

I would HIGHLY recommend a dress from Stonewear Ceramics as a gift to celebrate any occasion. I reached out to Erika to help recreate my wife’s wedding dress for our 10th anniversary, and her level of service, attention to detail, and overall quality was top notch throughout the entire process. I can honestly say this was my favorite gift I have ever given to my wife, and I want to thank Erika for helping make an already special occasion that much more so.

How do I give 10 stars? Erika has been so incredible on helping me to create a beautiful ceramic dress for my dear friend. She’s been the best communicator, SO thoughtful and caring throughout this whole process. Her attention to detail – sending me photos along the way, asking specifics, etc – is insane. She is warm and dedicated to her work. She is so talented and I cannot wait to see the finished product. DO NOT HESITATE to work with Erika, it will be the best decision!

We are so in love with our StoneWear replica of Cassidee’s dress & that she captured the special detail of her Lucchese boots left us speechless! Thank you Erika for the beautiful gift for us to give our daughter

Sandy

My daughter and I together created her wedding dress-she designed it and I stitched it. We had to face many obstacles including illness, COVID, and a car accident before the special day arrived. The wedding day was glorious and what better way to preserve our memories than to have it “set in stone”. Erika is truly a unique and talented artist. We can’t thank her enough for preserving our special day.

Erika’s replication of my daughters wedding gown was exquisite. It was the perfect gift for her 10 year wedding anniversary. Erika is very responsive and kept me informed with pictures as the process took place.

Pat

I commissioned Erika to replicate my daughter’s wedding gown as a gift for her wedding anniversary. I cannot express how wonderful the experience was. Erika sent photos during the process to see the stages of the sculpture as it was being created. The gown was no longer available but she researched the designer and found online photos so she could have even more detail of the gown than I provided with photos. Erika’s attention to detail is amazing, the sculpture looks exactly like the gown. The presentation box and beautiful velvet cover over the finished piece was exquisite. She even included a card to both myself and to my daughter. Now my daughter will have her gown to display as a piece of art, rather than being boxed away. I highly recommend StoneWear Ceramics if you are looking for a gift that will become a treasured heirloom.

I needed to get something unique and rare for my wife for our anniversary, I didn’t wanna get a standard cookie cutter gift for her. We have been together over 15 years and I really wanted her to know how much I loved her, I stumbled upon this via a friend, and when we received the finished product, the detail, the love, the artistic mastery, I was blown away. If you want a gift that will make your spouse cry immediately this is the gift do you want to get her lol!

Matthew

Absolutely beautiful! Purchased this as a gift for our daughter to celebrate the special day. We couldn’t be more happy with how it turned out. The details were perfect down to the lace and even the pearl buttons. So easy to work with Erika and loved the look on our daughter’s face when we surprised her with it!
