Afternoon all from a lovely sunny Glastonbury,
Just realised not done a up date of late so here be a few bits of news, Firstly we are open this coming Monday as is last bank holiday of May, we will be displaying a lot of our recently obtained new stock, lots of yummy Lemurian quartz specimens, alongside some stunning Moroccan aragonite crystal clusters, More of our very popular Bismuth sculpture clusters will be on display, We have had a rummage in my stores and dug out some stunning polished ammonite pairs that were all washed and cleaned yesterday this is as when they are cut and polished, there is always a build up of rock dust and polish within the crystal cavities, now they sparkle and look amazing.
Workshop is producing some stunning tumble stones, will put up photos and videos of this after this update.
Our opening times are a bit out of sync, still but will be back to normal very soon. Also advance notice for the end of the month of June the shop will be closed from close of trade on Saturday 20th June and re open on Monday 29th
That`s about it for now but keep a eye out, as will be posting photos and a few videos of tumble stone production shortly.
Have a great weekend all of you and enjoy the warm weather as see its forecast to get up to 35 down here next week
Cheers Mike

Some noise from my workshop this morning the big black tumbler had 25kg of beach collected jasper from my time of living in North Norfolk over 30 years the small blue base tumbler has Mendip calcite being smoothed and the orange vibro tumbler has 8kg of assorted Quartz, Amethyst. Rutillated quartz on its pre polish, tomorrow it will be on its final polish, then I will be doing the pre polish on lots of obsidian
