A dealer in mineral specimens with an emphasis on classic British localities. The catalogue is being assembled; nothing is for sale yet.
This domain was used for about twenty years by a mineral dealer of the same name based in Broadstone, Dorset, who traded on the British mineral-show circuit. That business is no longer operating, and the domain was acquired at auction afterwards.
We are not that business. We do not trade on its behalf, we make no claim to its history, and we do not reuse its stock descriptions, photographs or customer relationships. What continues is the subject: British mineral specimens.
Reference pages on classic British localities and the species they produce — Cornwall and Devon, the Caldbeck Fells, Weardale, Derbyshire, the Mendips, and Leadhills and Wanlockhead — alongside practical guidance on sizes, provenance, restoration and storage.
These exist because they are the things we get asked about, and because a dealer who cannot explain a locality is not much use to a collector.
A catalogue. Until then there is no cart, no checkout and no mailing list — when there is something to sell, this page will say so.
