I came to Crestone for a "spiritual retreat" and just happened to run into this wonderful store. Visually it is interesting, something I would think of a throw back from the hippie era. When you walk in the door there is incense burning, so that fit.
There is hemp clothing in the back room but I never got back there because I was stopped dead by the number of lovely stones and crystals that are on display in this store.
The owner, Lonny Roth, told me many of the stones are mined locally and many of them have a lovely handmade wrap on them. This design I have never seen anywhere before. Not silver, gold or copper, but a thin brown, almost leather, but more like tatting. Stunning!
I had no intention of purchasing anything on my retreat, but I walked out with 1 lovely Villa Grove Turquoise piece and 2 Saguache Agates. Stunning!
The scenery in this area is amazing, but this store alone is worth the trip. read more
