About Us

The UK’s leading wholesaler of rocks, fossils and minerals to the gift trade.

Proven Success, Expert Support

Our Dorset head office is just 20 miles from The Jurassic Coast – a World Heritage Site that boasts rock strata recording 185 million years of the Earth’s history.

With more than 40 years of expertise, we make it simple, profitable and enjoyable for you to retail crystals, minerals and fossils. Our tried and tested product lines includes our ‘ready-to-retail’ range, making selling and displaying easy – just watch buyers snap them up!

We have a wide range of gift packs, jewellery and stones including agate and onyx, tumbled gemstones, mineral candle holders, amethyst, rose quartz and fools’ gold… even fossil shark teeth!

Our Ethics and Values

Our rocks, minerals and fossils, although attractive and educational, are all ‘common’ and occur in essentially inexhaustible quantities. Any specimens we come across that are rare or of scientific value are donated to museums.

Very little of our material derives from living plants and animals and we refuse to work with any materials, such as coral or whole shells, which could have an environmental impact.

Wherever possible, the Company Directors have visited and inspected the mines and factories that produce our goods worldwide to ensure that strict standards are adhered to with regards to working conditions, health and safety, child labour and similar issues.
