This is a really nice little shop if you are into this sort of thing with a lot of different items…read moreto look at, and a knowledgeable staff that can tell you more about each thing. I really don't know much about these sorts of things but my Mom is really into them so I went in with her once. First off, I was surprised to see something like this in Elm Grove! I was also surprised at how much stuff there was, a little bit of everything! They have classes for yoga and other things as well. There is a big focus on healing, so there are stones/crystals for that. There are also books, artwork, items to display your different stones and crystals, etc. Definitely fun to check out!

Felt welcomed and found an abundance of treasures. Beautiful space, enjoyable displays, UV light on hand, and the trove of stock was in drawers in the main area (for those who, like me, want to browse absolutely everything). Went home with a beautiful rose quartz palm stone and a handful of little guys. Happy day

Stopped by to kinda window-shop. The kid likes rocks, so stopped by to see some. Course the first…read morequestion fired at them was "what's your cheapest rock?" It was about $20, so allowance will have to be saved up a little bit. But the pieces are beautiful, and the owner(?) was very patient with the kids even when it was clear we weren't going to be purchasing anything that day. And I think the kids learned more about rare minerals too. The normal elevator was apparently not working when we visited, though not labeled as such. We went up the freight elevator because walking up the stairs didn't seem too fun, even on leg day. Maybe down. Chrysalis is to your right as you exit the elevator, and around the corner. The door is not super exciting but we knocked and were invited in. Street parking out front is metered. There are public restrooms on the upper floors of the building. In any event, I am sure when the little one has a lemonade stand and has money burning a hole in their pocket we'll be back. If you like pretty stones or need an exotic gift, maybe you should too.

It's a small little shop on the corner, but it is wonderful in there. There are crystals, stones, books, amulets, charms, herbs, oils, tarot, jewelry, everything you can think of. The prices are super reasonable too. The owner is really nice. He let someone bring their ginormous dog in so she didn't have to leave him outside. Anyone that loves dogs, is good in my book :) I will be back to buy some things before I go back home tomorrow :)

The staff is always super friendly, like you've been a regular even if it's your first time in, and I gotta say: even the overhead Music is great! I've had some really great conversations with the employees, particularly Tim, who is just an all out "Nice Guy", and everyone is extremely knowledgeable, personable, and "Customer Service Friendly" - which is a rarity these days.
