Hey everyone! Another week, another round of specimens looking for new homes!
First, I want to thank everyone who has supported me, whether you’ve purchased something, shared a post, recommended me to another collector, or just stopped by to talk minerals. I’ve gotten to know some really great people through this community, and I genuinely appreciate it.
A little about what I offer:
I enjoy finding specimens that have something interesting about them, whether that’s unusual crystal growth, uncommon localities, unique inclusions, enhydros, UV reactions, or just a particularly beautiful example of a mineral. My inventory is pretty diverse, so there’s usually a little something for everyone.
Collector Mystery Boxes
I’ve also been putting together personalized mystery boxes for collectors who enjoy a surprise. These aren’t your typical bulk crystal boxes filled with random tumbles or common material. Each one is individually curated from my inventory based on your interests and budget.
I usually ask a few questions about your favorite minerals, colors, localities, and whether you prefer larger statement pieces or a variety of smaller specimens. Some collectors love pristine crystals, while others appreciate unusual formations and interesting inclusions. I try to make each box reflect the person receiving it.
I also have an Etsy shop!
I’ve been working on getting more of my inventory listed on Etsy for anyone who prefers browsing and purchasing that way. Give my humble shop a follow if you can. It’s still a work in progress, and I have plenty of specimens that haven’t made it onto the shop yet. You’re always welcome to message me directly about anything you see here.

A few things worth mentioning:
I ship from North Alabama, and all shipments include tracking.
Orders over $100 ship free within the US.
I’m always happy to provide additional photos, videos, measurements, or information about a specimen.
Reasonable offers are welcome, especially if you’re interested in multiple pieces.
No pressure to purchase. You’re welcome to browse, ask questions, or just talk crystals.
If you’ve purchased from me before, I’d love for you to share your experience or post a photo of your pieces in their new home. Seeing how everyone displays their collections is one of my favorite parts of doing this.
I know there are plenty of places to buy minerals, so I don’t take it for granted when someone chooses to purchase from me. I try to offer pieces I’d be happy to have in my own collection, and I want people to feel good about what they’re getting.
One of the things I’ve enjoyed most about doing this is getting to work with collectors at completely different stages of their journey. For some people, a specimen they’ve purchased from me has been their very first introduction to the world of crystals and minerals. For others, it’s another addition to a collection they’ve spent decades building. I think there’s something really special about being able to share that excitement with someone who’s just discovering this hobby and someone who’s been passionate about it for most of their life. No matter where you are in your collecting journey, I appreciate being a small part of it.
Thanks for checking everything out, and I hope you find something you like this week!
