What Are “Geode” Dice?

Geode dice feature some stand out design in the center of a pitted interior die. Typically, these include some kind of foil or shiny flakes that are attached to the carved out blank interior die, though you can also paint the carved space as well. This is evident in my “Rainbow Palette” set. It is supposed to mimic geodes that had a crystalline structure that sparkles when you crack it open.

The process starts with casting a blank interior die, using a Dremel tool to carve out a pit for the flakes/foil to sit on, and then casting it again in clear resin to seal the design. Once you have this blank interior die that is complete again, you can move to the final casting with the numbers. Yes, you read correctly, the process of creating geode dice takes 3 castings, hence why it has an increased cost compared to our shell dice that only require 2 castings.
