BREAK YOUR OWN GEODES
Break Your Own Geodes
Pop one of these roughly 1-1/4" dia stones into the toe of a sock, smash it with a hammer, and be the first person ever to see your real-as-Nature-makes-it geode!! Ninety percent of them have the familiar beautiful white crystals inside. Formed by volcanic action, they are found all over the world, but ours are from Mexico. There is no way to tell from the outside if they have crystal centers, but we will send you two just to raise your odds, and we haven't had a dud yet in our stores!! Much much more fun and satisfaction than buying one already cracked.SHARE
Our best and prettiest-ever slices of polished agate, showing concentric rings of natural and dyed colors. The slices range from 3" to 4-1/2" across and from 1/8" to 3/16" thick. We've seen samples from milky white to blue, purple, red, yellow and brown. No two alike, by definition. We'll choose. Think scientific specimens, framed art, coasters, trivets, paperweights, or skipping stones for rich kids who don't want to search the beach for flat stones.

These here selenite wands are quite the specimens. You know selenite? It’s a variety of gypsum, and it’s mighty purdy and crystal-ish. You’ll get a wand of it, somewhere in the 5” to 8” long range, and maybe about a 1/2” on each side. Add a Laser Pointer and have some naturally ocurring fiber optic fun! Whatever else you do with it (besides look at it up close in amazement), is up to you. But you’ll always be able to say, “Want to see my selenite wand?”

You would be a fool to pass up this deal. These nice sized chunks of Iron Pyrite, aka fools gold, are about 1" so you'll feel like you hit the mother-load! Size is approximate so yours maybe a little smaller or larger. Bury some in your child's sandbox, leave footprints with boots and tell them pirates buried gold treasure for a fun backyard adventure. Don't have kids? They also make great decorations in all those succulent pots you have. Now get yourself some and get in on the gold rush.

Just the one, actually, but it’s been sliced in half so the pair is perfectly symmetrical and mighty pretty. Although ammonites have been extinct for 65,000,000 years, we’ve got their approx 1” dia fossils for you. Our each is a book-matched pair of polished ammonites fossils of a single critter halved and polished to a bright symmetrical shininess. The colors vary from light tan to dark brown and we’ll pick because we have impeccable ammonitical color-shade taste. And yes, they’re just screaming to become cuff-links or earrings.

Enough to make a Mesozoic omelet? That would be dumb—there were no Mesozoic frying pans. No, these dozen eggs measure approx 3” long x 2” dia at the fat part, not unchickenish, and are for paleontology practice. Each egg has a different miniature dinosaur model (not a baby) inside—triceratops, pterodactyl, brachiosaurus, pachycephalosaurus, and more—ready for kids to excavate. They come in a traditional egg carton and include info cards and a plastic scraping tool. Great for classroom projects or birthday parties.
