Lapidary: Crafting Gemstones, by Nittany Mineralogical Society

Faire: Happy Valley

Maker: Nittany Mineralogical Society, Inc.

Home: Pennsylvania, United States

Lapidary is the craft of shaping and polishing gems and other decorative items from rough stones. Three principal methods are cabochon cutting of rounded-top gems, tumble-polishing of free-form or pre-formed shapes in batches, and faceting of transparent gems to maximize sparkle and fire. Carved figures and polished slab assemblies may also be made. Nittany Mineralogical Society will discuss and demonstrate the machines used in the making of cabochons and tumble-polishing of stones, and discuss the other areas of our interest in earth science.

Cassetta di Cottura – Natural Slow Cooker

Faire: Rome

Maker: SOCIETà COOPERATIVA A.R.L. FILO&FIBRA

It is a handcrafted product Made in Tuscany, an eco-design object conceived and created entirely within a circular economy. It is a versatile container for food processing, suitable for slow cooking and steaming, fermentation, and for keeping food cold (or hot), thanks to the principle of thermal inertia. Exploiting the insulating power of wool—a precious resource that has been ‘forgotten’ for too long—it allows food to continue the cooking process started on the stove and/or maintain its temperature in a controlled way. It reduces energy, water, emissions, and labor time, both at home and in small-scale catering. The LCA results have been remarkable, carried out by SEAcoop STP (Turin), 2025: Life Cycle Assessment of the Filo & Fibra Slow Cooker; a study reviewed and validated by Dr. Benedetto Rugani (CNR-IRET Porano). In simple terms… the Slow Cooker is sustainable and safe!

Magic Carousel

Faire: Tashkent

Maker: Diyora Mirpulatova

Home: Mirzo Ulugbek, Uzbekistan

Magic Carousel This model represents an ordinary carousel made from simple available items such as a motor (main element - an electric motor), LED necklace, cardboard with sparkles, small decorative stars, muline threads, a plastic container lid for creating a base, a cap for the base surface to create a certain volume and carousel simulation, simple tubes from which I made carousel seats and, of course, glue for gluing all parts one by one. The structure consists of a base (the entire model is held on a container), then a second base on which the central column is held, the top of the product, and seats that imitate real swings. I invested my electronics, design, and creativity skills in the project.
