Why you may enjoy shopping with
Metastones. .We have been running our little rock shop online for over 6 years now, no frills no big bangs. Simply finest quality minerals affordably. .This site is built and run on passion for stones and crystals. To this day I do my best to lovingly photograph and accurately catalogue each specimen. I would rather have a site full of beautiful and accurate photos than a online stock in the thousands that's hard to enjoy visiting. .Shopping should be a pleasure not a worry, we use an industry leading payment gateway in 2checkout we also carry any risk in shipping you are 100% insured against loss or breakage. .We support ethical mining, although I could not claim to know the origin of every stone in stock. Ninety percent of our stock is bought from subsistence miners and other small business like our own. I do my best to avoid blasted and strip mined specimens. Both for quality and the sake of our planet. . Its all hand selected, from the smallest crystal to one of our cabinet specimens I selected the piece for specific qualities that make it something I am proud to show case and share. .We often travel to the source of many of our best selling crystals and minerals. Making us an active part of the industry which enables us to ensure you get the finest minerals for the best finds. |
ABOUT
US
| I realized the other day, that it has been literally years since this page was altered. Probably around six years which is a long time for any business. Some things have changed and many things haven't |
| We live near Cape Town, a beautiful city at the tip of Africa, surrounded by the sea, mountains and woodlands. | |
| Southern Africa is rich in a vast variety of semi-precious stones and crystals. It is always an adventure to handle and ultimately choose from the thousands of stones available to us. We routinely visit Namibia, Kuruman and other well known locations. To collect the finest pieces direct from source. |

Still my favorite piece of rose Quartz. |
I count myself as blessed to live in an area of the world that is so
abundant in so much beauty. Not least of which is the nearly infinite
array of crystals and minerals that have become a daily part of my life.
Over the years I have learnt about and enjoyed practicing reiki, various
forms of meditation and numerous types of crystal healing therapies. I
claim no expertise but have enjoyed enriching my life immensely. |

We
have friends who travel to Zambia and Namibia and bring back stones
for us. The only mine in the world (to my knowledge) that yields quality
Sugilite is within reach and we get some really magnificent pieces.
Sugilite is probably my favorite stone. Also special are the
Brandberg Crystals that come exclusively from a mine in Namibia .
They are a combination of clear quartz and amethyst - wonderful for
meditation. ![]() |

These
pieces of malachite and petrified wood are two of the treasures we brought
home recently.
I just love the malachite! |
I
love crystals and stones. They are very much part of my life. I wear
them and use them in meditation . They enhance my
environment according to my moods and needs. The place vibrates with their
energies and as you can see my cats love them too.
Peace on Your Path Penny
