Every year, our Denver Gem Show trip is filled with magic—and this year was no exception. The Denver Gem & Mineral Show is one of the largest gatherings of crystal and mineral vendors in the world, and for us, it’s so much more than just sourcing inventory for the shop. It’s a time to discover rare treasures, reconnect with vendors and friends, deepen our relationship with the Earth through the beauty she shares with us, and share the excitement with all of you!
One of our favorite traditions is building a crystal grid at the show. It’s our way of setting intentions, sending healing energy to Mother Earth, and infusing love and light into all of the beautiful crystals we bring home. This practice keeps us grounded in gratitude and reminds us why we do what we do—sharing the Earth’s treasures with all of you.
Another tradition is making team bracelets to wear during the show. For us, they’re a symbol of unity—a way to feel connected and supported while we’re out sourcing treasures for you. These bracelets help keep our energy grounded and aligned as we work together. And this year, for the first time ever, we offered them to you too! It was so special to see our community excited to share in this tradition and connect with the energy alongside us.
The gem show is also about connection. We made new relationships and deepened existing ones with vendors from around the world. A highlight this year was spending time with our Peruvian vendor, who introduced us to the Inca Trilogy—the condor, puma, and serpent. Each carries its own sacred energy, and we can't wait to share the beautiful new wands, carvings, and teachings that came with this connection.
And of course, the crystals! We’ve added incredible new finds to the shop: Blue Halite from Iran, Coquimbite from Chile, Dianite from Russia, Druzy Chrome Chalcedony from Turkey, Mali Garnets from West Africa, Peridot with Chrome Diopside from Arizona, Powellite and Prasiolite from Brazil, Staurolite and Uvarovite from Russia—and so much more. With three pallets of treasures on their way home, we can’t wait for you to experience them with us.
This year, we also went live from Denver with five amazing Instagram Live Sales! It was such a joy to share the excitement of these new finds with you in real time, and we had so much fun exploring the gem show together. Connecting with you that way was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! Be sure to also check out our Denver Gem Show highlight over on Instagram for all the behind-the-scenes!
Outside the show, we also made time for recharging in nature. A stop at Iron Mountain Hot Springs was truly healing—we even brought a few crystals along to cleanse and charge in the water and mountain energy. The hot springs feature pools inspired by thermal waters around the world, and the experience was so revitalizing after spending many hours walking and shopping the gem show.
As always, we return from Denver with full hearts, truly inspired, and with so many new treasures to share. Thank you for being part of our community and joining in the excitement with us—stay tuned for all of our new finds!
