Gemstar Gemstone

Gemstar is literally the crown jewel of minerals, beads, jewelry supplies, and much more. I have shopped there more times than I can count, and each and every time I have found fabulous deals.
It is well worth a trip to Enfield to visit this amazing shop and all its treasures. All employees are friendly and generous with their time and knowledge, and I can’t begin to say the number of treasures I’ve purchased there. Even if all you do is just look at everything, you will have an amazing visit.
I was so saddened to hear of death of the owner, «Jimmy,» last December. He was such a kind, funny, generous and knowledgeable man, and I and so many others will miss him dearly.

Amazing little shop, if you can find it. Truly a treasure, I was in awe at everything. Hundreds of different crystals, plus beads and jewelry too.

Holy rock heaven. There’s where I was transported to for about 2 hours this weekend and what a wonderful experience it was. I had head about the place from a friend who is into crystals, gems, and minerals as the Mecca for such things and had to check it out for myself. And it truly is an experience of its own.
First of parking is on the street and the shop begins right as you enter the driveway. I immediately caught sight of what I thought was stacked firewood but was in fact log sized chunks of selenite! To the left were huge slabs of amethyst and stones cut in half to be bookends. Among the other things in the ‘rock garden’ tables of various stones, split open and exposed to the elements. (Don’t be surprised if something found its home under a rock you might fancy!) further back outside looks like a workstation with even more ‘book ends’ and slabs of polished stone.
Heading up into the store there is a porch area with plastic and cardboard boxes of crystals and stones.
Inside, are more fine and delicate beading and jeweling stones. Some are loose, some are drilled with holes already, and some are strung together on thread.
You can walk around here for hours, take multiple loops and still not see everything. (I must have taken three of four loops before finally telling myself it was time to stop).
Prices are reasonable — and a lot are done out by weight. I managed to get out spending under $ 50 since I purchase mostly natural rocks and smaller items (small bookends, selenite, labradorite, sage, African glass, Quartz, and a lucky geode).
I will definitely be going back!

Gemstar is my most favorite crystal and gemstone store to go to. The owner and the employees are so helpful and go way beyond their way to give excellent customer service. I am a most delighted, satisfied customer. I have experienced their expertise and «first class» customer service for over 6 years and highly recommend them.
The inventory is vast. And, they KNOW their inventory.
I love going to Gemstar!

3^rd Review. I have to say.
I read both before me — the 4 star had me set to go — the one star had me changing my mind.
So my boyfriend and I decided to chance it — I assumed I would just either agree one way or another with one of these two Unilocal reviews.
I was so relieved!
This place is awesome! Everyone was so friendly, helpful and kind! I was overwhelmed by their selection. I will definitely be stopping by any time I am in the area.

Fun Sunday afternoon jaunt. Well worth the drive from Sunapee area for any rock hound.
Interesting samples of quartz, amethyst, jade and geodes (bought a galena geode from Morocco). My wife thought their beads were nice and the selection vast.
Large outdoor selection too. It is well marked and you can park on the road.

In contrast to what the previous reviewer Nicole said, I could not be more happy to have entered into this shop. People will go out of their way to help you. I have found the people that work there to be both very informative and helpful. I have been at many shops that sell rocks, minerals, crystals and the like. However, by far this is like the Barnes and Nobles of places that sell rocks and minerals. They have everything you could possibly need. Plus, I find that their prices are affordable. I enjoy seeing small businesses that do business well. Gemstar is one of those places. To get the whole experience, I suggest going there in the warmer months. A good portion of the place is covered up during the winter time. If you go other times of the year you will get the whole experience.

Get directions first and call to check hours! It is really hidden! But this place is so worth the drive. I recommend a summer trip because you can really appreciate the Geode garden out front and the long drive is more fun when you aren’t hitting frost heaves! There are thousands of items to choose from and the variety is awesome. It’s not just glass, or just gemstones, there’s sterling, gold-​filled, base metals, cloisonné, crystals, cords, stones, cabochons, and way more than I can list. I go to stock up on gemstone strands in unusual cuts or sizes and sterling silver. The prices are so great I can afford to use the items in pieces I sell, and people still comment on how well-​priced my jewelry is. Can’t wait to visit again!

We drove 3 hours to this store in utter excitement, only to be greeted by the rudest people. They had 5mins till they closed, which is our fault, but we were told they were open till 7pm, apparently it’s 5pm. We asked the woman if we picked out our stones in 5 mins BEFORE they close if they would serve us. She told us to get lost and had a grin on her face, she got such a kick out of denying us service, THEN proceeded to tell another woman in the store that she had 5 mins to pick out and buy what she wanted.
DO NOT BUY STONES FROM THESE NEGATIVE PEOPLE! They clearly install bad energy into all there stones, and it’s not worth the amount of cleansing you would have to do to rejuvenate them.
Being in an energetic business, you would think they would practice love and light, but hardly any of the crystals shine on this property. I wasn’t really drawn to anything in particular, but now I know it is because the universe would never want me to use one of their stones in my healing practice.

Great deals on beads and jewelry! A hidden gem. A bit hard to find, way down a dirt road and then just off to the side.
