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.

This is a view across the bay from where we go to  choose stones. In winter Southern Right Whales and their calves frolic in the surf.
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.

Metastones the little website I started as all but as hobby has become a full time pleasure and joy. I have collected, sold and shared more amazing minerals and crystals than I had ever imagined seeing in the past six years. Collecting stones which started as hobby when I was as young as six. Has become a source of income and remains my great pleasure.
The nearly infinite diversity of stones here in Africa and peoples amazing experiences with them never ceases to astound me. It’s a great way to make a living passing on beautiful and mystical treasures that bring us all so much pleasure.
I thank you all for being a part of this experience, just by visiting the site.
Sincerely
Brian


THIS IS BELLA PANCHO'S NEW APPRENTICE.
 

THIS IS PANCHO METASONES MASCOT AND "ROCKHOUND"


ALL THAT ROCK HOUNDING CAN TAKE IT OUT OF A GIRL MIND.
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.

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
