Rare and unique gems for your artistic muse
I listen to the stone, it talks to me. It tells me how it formed in the earth's bosom. I relive the joy and excitement of it's discovery. It's color and patterns enrapture me. How dare I consider cutting a prosaic cab when I realize the journey the stone has made. Let our gems ignite your muse. 49erMinerals

5 out of 5 starsI bought multiple items from this shop and every one of the stones were unique, nicely shaped and polished. I'm looking forward to working with these cabochons to create a work of art. Highly recommend this shop.

5 out of 5 starsThis set is absolutely beautiful. Really nice stones. Fast shipping, and it was fun to receive, as they sent some other stones as gifts. Highly recommend.

5 out of 5 stars49erMinerals always has the highest quality cabochons, and the craftsmanship of the sculpted pieces is superb. Their dinosaur bone is the best quality I've seen anywhere. The best part is that what you see is exactly what you get. No hidden flaws, no over saturation of color. In fact, the stones look even better in person. Shipping is always lightning fast, the packaging is super safe and secure, and the "gifts" are gems in themselves. I have purchased countless cabochons from 49erMinerals and have NEVER been disappointed. This is my goto store for all of my cabochon needs. THANK YOU JOYCE & JIMMY!

5 out of 5 starsI always receive the finest high quality cabochons from 49erMinerals shop. I can't tell you how many I have purchased and had made into necklaces for myself, family, and friends, but many to say the least. If you want high quality unique hand sculpted cabochons along with just high quality cabochons, look no farther than the 49erMinerals shop here on Etsy. You will love shopping here. Thank you again to Jimmy, who sculpts many of the cabochons, and Joyce, his lovely wife who post all of the cabs, for packaging and shipping promptly and always includes a surprise kicker. Thank you so much again. This Bisbee Banded Azurite cabochon is a beauty.

I am fortunate to be living in a mineralogist's dream. I have loved rocks since playing in a sandbox in Pennsylvania as a kid and now the whole Southwest is my sandbox. Discovering and Creating Gems with my cabbing machine really "Rocks".
