Welcome to our store! Our goal is to share our passion for nature and history as you explore the site. From early U.S. coins to handcrafted jewelry to the incredible works of art that Mother Nature has created for us and hidden inside the earth in the form of Herkimer diamonds and other mineral specimens, you are sure to find something that speaks to you.

NOVEMBER SPOTLIGHT

“She stands, In tattered gold, Tossing bits of amber, And jade, jewels of a year grown old: November.”— Zephyr Ware Tarver

Autumn

The sky is a special kind of blue when Autumn sends her first Chill.    Apples baking in the oven, cinnamon, and spice scent the air.  It's a warm and cozy kind of feeling.  Feel the leaves crunching beneath your feet.    This collection brings some of the late summer vibes and the first hints of Autumn.

    It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year!

    It seems our mining season has come to an end—boo hiss! While we did enjoy a longer season with above-average temperatures throughout most of November, it's always sad to pack...
