I’m not really sure how to sell this beautiful collection. If anyone has any tips please let me know! There’s about 4 more boxes just like this.

The one on the right is roughly 2.5 feet tall. One on the left is roughly a foot tall.

*update: a few people have asked how we (wife and I) got them for free. To be 100% honest I’m not sure what exactly we did to get so lucky. We showed up at a yard sale, looked around but didn’t really find anything we liked. As we wandered around we struck up a conversation with the host. She mentioned she recently split with her SO and everything that didn’t sell was going to the dump, and that’s when she brought them up and asked if we would like them. Truly a lucky encounter.

We are planning on cleaning them up and finding a spot for them this weekend. I’ll post an update once we do!

Got some Spessartine Garnet to add some beans to my breakfast. Open to suggestions on what to add next

He is a absolutely obsessed with rocks and knows the names of many of them. I was (and still am) obsessed with rocks at his age too. He has a shelf for his rocks in his room but he prefers to lug this bag around with him instead so he can have his crystals where ever he goes. I definitely need to get him a better case to carry them around in.

Now i wonder, how did it end up there. Is there any ritual with quartz and river? How should i better clean it from the river mud? Is there a good way to cleanse its energy? Thank you!

I've always wanted labradorite countertops. I didn't realize how hard it would be to find exactly what I wanted. Well.this year I finally achieved my dream!

My MIL just saw this at a garage sale and I already said yes (what a sweet MIL I have), does there seem to be some cool stuff in here?? I'm not sure what a lot of them are, I recognize some moonstone, agates, maybe a raw malachite in the bottom left? citrine top right? definitely an opalite and something I can only describe as r/mineralgore...

but what is the big pink tower? anything else standing out you can help me identify?

I would say 100's of pieces large and small. Most of them are tagged with locations and the name but I have several larger pieces that aren't and I have no idea of the type they are. My daughter has layer claim to several which I don't necessarily need names for as they're pretty to her. Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated. I'm not sure what to do with them as I don't collect them. Also several fossils, raw copper, etc.

Isn’t she beautiful? I’ve been eyeing peach moonstone for a minute, but never saw any with this good of a flash.

Today we washed and took photos of this magnificent 9ft giant.. ♥️

She would have picked it up in a rock shop in London in the 1960s, she had an extensive collection of impressive pieces. When I hold it over text it splits it so I get a double image. Even if it’s glass - it’s pretty and looks nice on display. Just have to position it carefully as any sun shining though magnifies intensely and burns! Weighs 670g.

My cat always does this where she lays on top of my crystals instead of on the carpet. There’s plenty more sunlight for her to lay in, and some of them are sharp so I don’t think it’d be more comfortable. Open to any spiritual or scientific explanations for this!
