Love the huge sci-fi selection and even found some King books in the horror section too! My favorite purchase was a beautiful copy of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. 1990 Reader's Digest edition with illustrations and it couldn't be in better shape. Already half way through the book now :) Will have to return to Next Chapter soon!

### Important Update -- Please Support Our Local Small Businesses…read more I wanted to share an important update regarding **MagicasGemas and the other small businesses in the area.** There appears to be an ongoing dispute between building management and the property/leasing management across the way, which includes the parking structure. As a result, a solid panel fence has been placed between the parking area and the walkway that customers and small business owners have traditionally used. Unfortunately, this makes it **look as though the businesses are closed or inaccessible when they are NOT.** **MagicasGemas is OPEN!** Customers simply need to walk to the **end of the fence and enter from the street-side sidewalk** to reach the business. This situation is affecting not just MagicasGemas, but the other hardworking small businesses in the area as well. Please don't assume they're closed because the usual walkway is blocked. **Please continue to support these local businesses.** Make the extra few minutes to walk around the fence, visit, shop, and let the owners know that their community hasn't forgotten them. Small businesses depend on our support, especially when circumstances beyond their control make it harder for customers to find them. **Please share this update so people know: THEY ARE OPEN! ** #SupportSmallBusiness #ShopLocal #SupportLocalBusiness #MagicasGemas

The metaphysical shop next to Inn of the Seventh Ray is a really nice little stop, especially…read morebefore dinner. It's clean, thoughtfully put together, and has a beautiful selection of books, crystals, oils, candles, incense, and jewelry. Definitely a great place to browse and take your time. The only thing that threw me off a bit was that the person at the front (near the spiral staircase entrance) was having a full dinner at the register when I walked in. I completely understand needing to eat, but it made the space feel a little less open for interaction. I noticed people, including myself, kind of just looked around quietly and moved on without asking questions or making purchases. I actually had a few things I was considering buying, but I didn't feel comfortable interrupting, so I ended up leaving without them. It might help to have someone cover the front or step away briefly during breaks so the space still feels welcoming and easy to engage with. Overall, it's a beautiful shop, just a small tweak in that area could really enhance the experience.

They were supposed to stay open until 10:30pm, they didn't.

I am so upset!! I was counting on getting my friend crystals from there. I even said out loud as we walked out that we'd be back after dinner to buy a bunch of items. Don't expect them to be open when they say they'll be open. Bad business practice!!

The shop on Topanga Canyon Blvd has been around for 20 years, owned and run by Bari, one of the kindest, most patient people I've met. You can tell how much she cares about her customers, her team, and the community. Every time I stopped in, the store was vibrant, with projects underway at every table. If your beaded jewelry needs some TLC, or you're looking for inspiration for a new piece or gift, stop into Bead Lounge. It's worth the trip.

It's right next to a hiking trail, and the whole setting feels like it blends into nature instead of sitting on top of it. There's a small waterfall, benches to sit and take everything in, and lots of different rock displays to explore. They also have a wide range of rocks at different price points, so there's something for every budget if you're just browsing or looking for a meaningful piece. Theres usually one person on duty, but its not too busy so the service is quick and can be personalized. I actually bought a large heart-shaped rock here that I still have and really enjoy. A lot of the pieces I collected in my twenties came from this spot, so it holds a bit of nostalgia for me as well. I'm also really glad to see they made it through the Topanga fires. I'm hoping to make it back down there soon. Parking is plentiful, which makes visiting easy and stress-free. Just a heads up though, the ground is entirely made of rocks and uneven terrain, so be careful when walking around since it's not a solid or flat surface. Overall, it's a peaceful, grounding place that feels both unique and connected to the landscape around it.

Now, you can get a lot of the crystals and jewelry elsewhere at a better price. This is not a bargain store. What you do get here is calm service and staff that is helpful and can guide you. It is also connected to or affiliated with Jalan Imports which has great things from Bali. I love their Buddhas. I can't afford (anywhere) the large ones, but one day I am going to find a small one and be a happy camper. I love their silver jewelry and have bought a couple of pieces there. They have an amazing selection of crystals from super tiny to just huge. They are all beautiful and again the place is just chill and no one bothers you. I just adore the staff and the main reason for my return. I also love the smell of the place. It is so worth a visit or three. Have fun.

The items were worth every penny I spent & when you get the items they place the descriptions of the stones / crystals on there so you can be aware of what you're buying , they also have them there when you're making your selection also , I walked out happy & satisfied . I would recommend anyone to come here my experience was well & a friend referred me here. It was quiet. It smells nice, everything is. They wrap up the items for you delicately. 10/10. I feel like it's well known because as soon as I walked out someone asked me what I got & started to tell me what they love from the store , so the customer service is always TOP TIER it seems like I know it was for me.
