    The Stone Room is something you just have to experience. Walking in feels like stepping into another world--one that's filled with the magic of crystals and stones. The museum staff are incredibly kind and helpful, adding to the atmosphere that feels perfectly in tune with the space. Plus, the prices are more than reasonable, especially for something this special. Honestly, just go see for yourself--you won't regret it.

    This is a small store with lots of beautiful crystals, stones, rocks and jewelry. The owner is very nice. If you buy a stretchy bracelet and it's too big, she will restring it to fit your wrist at no additional cost. I bought three bracelets and she restrung them to fit while I wait for a few minutes.

    Cool store. what a great store every single stone and crystal you can imagine handmade decorations of all sorts. Stones and crystals of all around the world. The owner and staff are very well-versed in the properties of each one and the prices are extremely reasonable. They have sage anything to heal to clean make strong and improve

    I have visited many of the crystal shops around the Bay Area, but none have gravitationally pulled me in like Stone Room has. I started visiting Stone Room 2 back in December 2022, but the Stone Room in Albany has been the store that I frequent the most. Majority of my crystals have come from them, and I am very thankful for their wisdom and their beautiful stones that come from all over the globe. All of the crystals that you see in this shop are hand-selected and brought back from various states and countries. It's seldom that you find places that have both highly knowledgeable people that are able to answer questions and fulfill your metaphysical needs while also maintaining the correct ambience for the crystals themselves. As you walk into this little shop, you are immediately swept away by the beautiful and harmonious energies that the crystals emit openly with calming, meditative music gently playing in the background. All around you nestled on glass and wooden shelves and along the floor in various containers are crystals of bountiful shapes, sizes, colors, and vibrational frequencies. Unlike other crystal shops that place descriptions for each crystal, majority of the crystals at Stone Room will simply have the name, and potentially its state/country of origin. Their sister store Stone Room 2, being the larger store, will have descriptions, but that is partially because they tend to get a bit busier being next to Berkeley City College, UC Berkeley up the street, and location-wise being in the heart of Berkeley on University. This shop is a bit small, and can only house a select few people at a time, but the crystals within are hidden gems themselves. Aside from raw, tumbled, and variously shaped stones, the shop also offers books (metaphysical/spiritual-oriented, crystal information etc), tarot, pendulums, sage, palo santo, candles, and a plethora of jewelry options (rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, etc.) I suggest that if you are looking for jewelry, books, or pendulums specifically to check out Stone Room 2, as their store is bigger and they house a larger selection of those items. However, Stone Room does carry them as well, just not as copious. At Stone Room, you will often be met by Tenzin, who practically has an encyclopedia of knowledge within her mind. Any questions you have about any of the crystals within her shop will be answered diligently and informatively. She has definitely been one of my biggest resources in developing my spiritual growth and intuitiveness within my own personal life. I have positively grown so much over the last 6 months that I have been working with her and her husband Tashi and I am forever grateful for any wisdom, knowledge, and most of all, crystals for my own practice. I am unapologetically one of their frequent customers for the sole reason that they are my strongest resource for my own spiritual development through these wonderful stones, and they always have what I need when I arrive. Did I mention that I have only been visiting these shops for 6 months? I have had this conversation with Tashi, Tenzin's husband, and it honestly feels much longer than that. As if I have known them and have been working with them for years now. Their generosity, hospitality, and willingness to assist you are always present, and it is apparent that they want to aid you in however way they can to help pave the way for you and your personal journey through this life. I always leave this shop feeling refreshed, revitalized, and at peace. Whether you are drawn to the beauty of these minerals and stones that emerge from our earth, are tapping into your third eye, are wanting to balance your chakras, or have any other metaphysical or spiritual endeavors that need to be nurtured, Stone Room is by far one of the best crystal shops in the East Bay with knowledgeable owners that will tend to your needs.

    5 star is not enough for this amazing store! My mother, daughter and I just started visiting recently but we feel like we've known owners Tenzin and Tashi for years...like family! I can't explain how loving, caring and genuine they are! They have a beautiful uniqueness about them not to mention the abundance of knowledge they have about crystals and every item they have in the store. They are not your typical seller because they're not just there to make a buck. They're there to help, share and spread their wealth of knowledge and wisdom and most of all the love that all humans should and need to have within themselves. To me this is more like a temple not a store. As you walk through the door you feel the positive energy immediately!! EVERY single time we visit we stay for several hours just talking about the beautiful pieces they have and LIFE in general! It is such a joy to see and chat with them. My family and I feel so blessed to have met them and look forward to having a long term relationship! Writing this review is not enough to show our gratitude! So YES, if you're looking for authentic, unique crystals/gensand positive energy, this IS the place to go! Peace & Love...Flo, Nancy & Jamie

I had my rings resized up 2.5 sizes and was really nervous about the integrity of the settings afterward, especially with the diamonds, but it's been about a month+ of regular wear and everything is still perfect. No loose stones, no diamonds falling out, and the resize looks good. Super happy with the craftsmanship and care put into my rings. Rodrigo was incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and immediately made me feel at ease. You can tell he genuinely cares about his work and the people trusting him with sentimental pieces. It's hard to find people who are both skilled and trustworthy, and safe to say I won't be going anywhere else for my jewelry needs.

This piece means a lot to me--it was given to me by my sister before her wedding, and I use it to hold my husband's star number. When I shared that with him, he told me that if it's valuable to me, then it's valuable to him too. That really stuck with me. I included before and after photos, and honestly, I love that the repaired spot has a little character now--it tells a story. It feels even more meaningful than before. Kind, professional, and truly cares about his work. I'll definitely be a returning customer.
