Rock Shop...


http://www.townofdrygulch.com/mainstoreandgallery It's amazing to me as to just how many people come to the Gem Mine and tell me that they never knew that the Store existed! Yes, the large A-frame is our store, "Crystal Chateau", and on the second floor (it has a Second Floor), is my art gallery, "Earthstone Gallery. I've been doing these similar stores for thirty years now! (NY & PA)

What is Crystal Chateau? Well, many would say it's a rock shop. But it is so much more than that. I have collected some of the most unusual gift items anywhere around! Year after year I attended some of the largest Gem and Mineral shows in the world... there I both honed my craft as a stone/mineral sculptor, and purchased rare and unusual items for our stores.

When I overhear someone say: "Gee, I just don't know what to get for them as a gift, they are so hard to buy for", I just cringe. "Crystal Chateau" is the absolute perfect store for the "hard to buy for"!
