We loved it!! Great and unique selection of crystals and gifts plus unique oddities like a casting of a T. Rex skull and various taxidermied animals. Lots of unique and pretty things to look at.
Unfortunately I was unable to shop in the store because I would not put a mask on even though the State of Maine has dropped their mask mandate for those vaccinated. This shop apparently wants to push business to other stores in the area. I would suggest that the owner and workers get the vaccine if they are still concerned about getting the virus instead of requiring patrons to mask up to protect them.
Clever shop with items for both gift-givers and collectors alike! More than just a gem/rock shop, they had jewelry, shells, small selection of art supplies and letter press stationery on the main floor. On the second floor, it felt like a macabre museum, with interesting specimens to see (and buy!). Everything is merchandised in such an interesting and entertaining way, youll spend so much time just reading all of the description cards. Warning: if you have small kids that are prone to touching and grabbing then I would maybe steer clear - everything was just way too tantalizing to avoid touching!
A beautiful place! there’s so many rocks to choose from and the smaller rocks are quite affordable!
A interesting collection of particulars. From unusual rocks to foxes bones and little bits of this and that in-between. Dazzling arrays are very tempting to buys Christmas gifts that are for sure unique, from the dark and masculine fossil plates and flasks to glittery jewelry and locally made pottery that is inspired by the bar harbor sea.
When we walked in woman curtly told us she is at capacity and wait outside, shell get us. Customers left, but she never came to get us. Left after waiting outside for 10 min. I guess they would rather people that browse endlessly than someone with card in hand?
I love this place! They support local artists, and pique your curiosity with the bizarre AGs the beautiful. I always stop by when Im in the area, because you never know what you might find!
Bought my wife a couple crystals from here on our vacation, the crystals are beautiful and the shop is really cool and reasonably priced! Got an awesome looking piece of selenite and an amethyst cluster, both of which my wife has wanted for awhile. One of rhe few places in bar harbor we found that didnt just sell either super expensive pieces or kept everything behind glass and having everything out in the open and priced made it a way more enjoying and comfortable experience.
Wish I could have brought a lot but limited in suitcase. Absolutely loved this place. I got some cool biodegradable paper with seeds for Christmas gifts. Each packet had a variety of local flower seeds.
Nice place with variety of uniques stuff and taxidermy
Completely horrible I used to be a long time customer every year I’d come up and would always go out of my way to visit what I thought was a store different from all the tourist traps but is even worse I was just about to purchase an air plant clearly marked 8$ when I go up to checkout the employee says it’s 15$!! I was aghast, I took the woman over and showed her the 8$ sign there wasn’t even one that said 15$ she just said “that shouldn’t be there” and scoffed like it was my fault like I wrote an 8$ sign brought it into the store took the 15$ sign off and slapped my sign onto the table what a scam no apologies for what was clearly a human error and it really does suck because I was going to spend 32$ the next day on a cool leather journal but not after this... and I even found the Etsy seller who makes them and sells the exact same ones for less! Don’t waste your time here and don’t be fooled by the “family owned” appearance it’s nothing but a hoax folks.
This place is so neat. Has so many odd things from plants to reptiles. Out of this world things that you dont see every day. Definetly a place to check out and see all the crazy things and awesome rocks of coarse
I absolutely LOVED this store!! Now that we are home from vacation, I cant stop thinking about it, and wish I could go back and spend a few HOURS here! Lovely space with so much beautiful merchandise - im very picky but adored almost everything!
Amazing stuff. Even just to look at. The notices are funny, and the merchandise never ceases to surprise me. It is wonderful. You should go, even if you dont buy anything.
Great family-owned business. Very helpful and friendly. Unique and bizarre beautiful gifts.
