Mixed Stone Gift Box, 14 Pieces

For someone starting a stone collection. Seven points and seven rounded stones in one gift box.

A whole first collection in one box.

Most stone lovers started with a handful of mixed pieces, turning each one over to see which color felt like theirs. This box gives you that first handful, seven small points and seven smooth rounded stones in a mix of colors. The pieces aren't identified by mineral, so choose it for the look and the fun of sorting them.

The story

Ole Worm’s collection catalogue, published in 1655, brought minerals, plants, animals and made objects into one cabinet of curiosity. Small collections have long offered a way to notice differences, compare shapes and keep asking what each piece might be.

Giving it

Give it to a friend who's just getting into crystals, or keep it on your desk and pick one stone a week to carry. Store the pieces back in the box between displays.
