You've heard me talking about stones and slabs I've gotten from Page's, and I thought it was long overdue that I take you on a tour of the shop. The owner, Clark, is a great source of information and knowledge, and gets his stones at such a low price that he can pass the savings on. For more information on this great shop in Montague, MI in the White Lake area you can run a quick search, or find all the contact information on his Facebook page at:

OUTSTANDING RELATIONSHIP BUILT!!! Predestined and Ordained= Just my Opinion. He does have an Outstanding Rock Shop!!! Thank You For Sharing.
He's a Christian, too. It's amazing how easy it is to form great relationships when you're already brothers and sisters, isn't it?
What a great store ! I could spend some time in there ! So much to look at ! Your pick ups are awesome ! Enjoyed the store tour 😊
Thanks! Best part is there's seating, so you can rest for a bit and then keep on shopping. hehe
Loved it, beautiful store, amazing selection of rocks……
Thank you. I love that he has everything from rough to finished stones.
Gotta confess, that pink sphere at 4;54 made me inhale with a gasp!! But my-oh-my every item in that store was like a sweet tooth seeing candy for the first time!! Love the rough stones you showed at the end, man I'd be in seventh heaven with that bucket of gems!! Late 1980's was told of an arts supply store near us, it was a narrow but very long shop. Had art supplies up-front but out-back had crystals behind old wooden glass fronted cabinets, spent hours looking at its wonders until spending the few few dollars I had on some single & double terminator quartz, plus a rose quartz that was shaped like a triangle teardrop. Made the rose quartz into a pendant that I wore daily as a teenager until it was lost when my glue job failed. The terminators, I still have, they now rest in my own wooden glass fronted shelves among other saved treasures. Though nothing specimen worthy😅 Goldstone / Firestone comes in various colours: Red, Brown, Pink, and the dark blue purple grey you found is my favourite. I was told it's like molten glass/stone with metal dust mixed into it. I've made bracelets out of drilled rectangular tube pieces but it can have a tendency to be more fragile than natural hard stone and can crack if stressed or if it has unseen flaws.
Sounds like a great a little shop you had. I wish I could have seen it, and a bummer about the lost crystal. Thanks for the tips on the goldstone. I'll make sure I use a smooth blade if I want to cut it to avoid breaking it. Thanks for watching.
