10/10 would recommend to a friend 😊If you love crystals and good vibes you should check this place out! I had the opportunity to chat with Carrie, she was so kind and helpful! She even can wrap any crystal you would like to wear as necklace! So cool! Will be back for sure!

I have been stopping by this place for years. The owner is well known in the mineralogy world. I have run into gift shop owners from Alaska to Tucson that know of him. The prices are very reasonable, and the selection is second-to-none. Whether you are looking for polished river rocks, turquoise, sand stone, granite, carved soap stone, etc. you are bound to find it here.

Review №12

Let me start out by saying I have spent hundreds of dollars at this shop before and always had an amazing experience. I brought my two sisters here while they where on vacation and had more minerals picked out to buy this trip. While I was browsing I saw they got a new deck of cards with different types of rocks with information about them on the back so I was going through the display deck to find a certain rock I was going to buy while I was there. Tee the lady at the cash register was extremely rude. “This isn’t a Barnes and noble either you buy or stop looking at it” was what she told me. I then put my minerals back and still told my sisters to get theirs even though they wanted to put them back. If they don’t want people going through their books or cards with rock information on them they shouldn’t have a display option. I could understand if I was standing in the way or taking pictures of the cards. But I wasn’t I was by the tiny book shelf seeing if it was worth buying and if they had the mineral I was going to get. Everyone else who works there are amazing humans and are so passionate about the shop and what they sell besides Tee. I will still recommend this shop but to make sure to tell everyone not to browse the tiny book shelf because according to Tee it’s a nuisance. I personally will never spend another dime there again. She completely ruined the experience of looking around the shop and the beauty that comes with it.

This is the best darn rock shop I’ve ever been to. The man in charge is all that and a bag of chips. I learned so much. The owner took the time to teach me some things? Give me advise. And he gave it to me straight.

One of my favorite rock shops in town, super helpful staff, with an amazing selection of rare stones and cabochons.

St
Review №15

I like this shop because it is close to home but very expensive in my opinion. Its cheaper than a mall store and definitely for folks who know what rocks they are looking for...not great for the novice. Shops like The AZ Gift Center in AJ really make the prices here hurt though.

Review №16

If you like rocks, crystals, or minerals, this is the place for you. There are so many different types, sizes, shapes, and qualities. It puts rocks shops in tourist trap areas to shame, not only in selection, but in price as well.

Review №17

Seriously? Rocks? YES! Rocks, geodes, minerals, crystals, petrified wood, petrified dinosaur poop (not kidding!), gemstones... you name it. The selection goes on! Whether youre into making jewelry, want a conversation piece for that table, or looking to add the right natural vibe to a spa, they have it. I was impressed with the helpfulness of the folks here, but even more impressed with the selection. We could have spent all day here! Its as much a store as it is a destination!

For a non-collector of rocks and minerals, it must take quite the collection of unique and beautiful stones to keep a guy and his girlfriend looking around in awe for 2 hours, imagine how long you would spend here if you can without any expectations either 😉

I was visiting AZ with family around the end of April and was excited to go crystal shopping. I found a small piece outside that was a white/green agate of some sort with druzy in the middle. It was stunning. I also picked a snakeskin stone. Went to check out and the lady in the front (she wears 2 glasses on top of each other on her head) admired the piece and complemented how nice it was. We bought a few items, and left. When we got home we looked through each of the stones to find that particular piece not placed in the bag. I was very upset. That was the piece I found and wanted the most. Called the store and they said nothing was left on the table and they would ask around. The next day I called again and spoke to a man that was helpful but couldnt find it either. Another cashier called to make sure it wasnt her who checked us out, and I told her it was an older lady. Long story short, bought a crystal and it was never placed in my bag nor did I get an offer for a refund. They also have you write every piece down with price, but dont let you keep the copy to see what you have purchased. I dont live in the area, and have given up trying to have them find my crystal that was mysteriously missing. I didnt want that energy from the store so left the snakeskin stone I did get in Dateland by a tree. Bad experience, bad vibes, bad juju. Not cool. Not visiting again.

I loved going and exploring the possibilities of rocks! Jeanie was just wonderful in helping me choose Rocks for each of my grandchildren. It was pure pleasure to be guided through the massive display of beautiful rocks! If you are looking for an unusual gift or just want to drink in the beauty of nature, Natural Expressions is a place to be enjoyed!

Review №55

Absolutely TOP class. The surroundings are very humble. But ring the bell and you will be treated with top-class service. I am a lowly novice who buys the least expensive stones to give my grandsons. My hope is to inspire a love for rocks in these four young boys (ages 7-5-3-1). In terms of business, I am small potatoes. But they give me their full attention and help. They are dedicated to the love of rocks and to their customers.

This is the place to go for all of your rock needs.

We had questions about some things but all of them were answered by the knowledgeable folks working there. I am definately going to return!

Stop by their business a couple of times, lots of neat stuff out side and not too sure about the stuff on the inside, i could only stay inside for how long My lungs and i could take the smell of cigarette smoke which was not very long.

I visited here in the early afternoon on a sunny day in April 2013. Once through the side gate, I was confronted with tables of lapidary slabs, arranged generally by type of stone. Not cheap ($16/lb) but of high quality, and wide variety. (There is a smaller collection of larger slabs, some cored for clock faces, at $8/lb.) Young assistant eventually found me, and took me on a tour of the house, which is filled with specimens, even in the fridge! The proprietor, Fred Thiele, arrived after a while, and graciously demonstrated slabbing saws (about ten in operation on the industrial-sized lot), and showed me around the rough rock, reasonably priced, but not terribly useful to one like myself without a saw. I spent a few pleasant hours here, rummaging through the rocks, and emerged with a few of what have become my favorite slabs. I also got a few business cards, which unfortunately do not show hours of operation: perhaps I was lucky finding the place open. But, on the whole, recommended for collectors and lapidaries.
