Great rock shop, chock full of everything from crystal displays, small specimens and jewelry to…read morelarge incredibly beautiful museum quality pieces. Cool Buddhist stone statues and such. Rough rock and mineral specimens or polished slabs, shapes and spheres. Very knowledgeable owner. I think you call first so she can open the door for you. Beautiful old building, street parking not bad at all. Kinda rough old industrial neighborhood with bridges and lots of homeless folks camping about. Nothing serious at all. I think open till 7pm. Been a rockhound for 65 years (seems shocking to my ears to hear that) and this is the only place I go.

We were in the neighborhood, but noticed on yelp that this business is "by appointment only". It…read morewas a Tuesday afternoon, but we figured they couldn't really be that busy right? So we called, we were told to show up, and to call again to enter as they lock the entrance. It's the other side of downtown, across the river, so it's pretty funky. But no problem! Expect street parking as well. Upon arrival, we called and waited outside, and less than 3 minutes later we entered. Its understandable that they let customers in this way as it's not the greatest of walkable neighborhoods. They've got a really great selection of rocks, crystals, and some fossils. I'm more into fossils than I am rocks/minerals. Pricing appears to be average to upper-average, but I'm not much of an expert as well tbh. I go for what looks 'pretty' and 'cool-looking' versus what's rare and cost more. "Amateurish" is the term for myself I guess lol! We did have good interactions with (I believe her name was) Taylor, who knew her stuff. Whatever we asked for, she knew where it was. I've been to about six other rock stores around Portland, but in comparison this place would be in the middle, about 4th best out of six, regarding what they have in stock. We'll be back someday.
