World of Stones & Mystics

Had an amazing experience with my friends here! You can easily find what you’re looking for! If not, they’ll help you! The stones I’ve bought here are beyond beautiful. They have little notes/​information about the crystal/​gemstone.

World of Stones has an amazing selection, & Henry, the owner is incredibly knowledgeable. Every time I’ve been in, Henry has surprised me with his kindness & joy. This store is such a pleasure to be in, sometimes I just stop by to say hello. Do yourself a favor & check this place out.

This store is a delight to visit — clean and well-​organized with an amazing selection of high quality gems and stones. Henry, the owner, is a true expert and so helpful. He has traveled the world buying his merchandise.

This shop is– pun intended– a hidden gem! Henry is more rare and precious than orange kyanite– he is knowledgeable, honest, helpful, friendly, and simply a joy to be around! The selection of stones is out of this world– from beads to pocket stones, from wall hangings to rough points and clusters — and beyond! If I had more free time, I could easily spend it looking at all the amazing things in the store and picking Henry’s brain. Gloria is also an absolute sweetheart and makes everyone feel welcome and at home.
They are both so personable that they recognize me when I come into the store– I love nothing better than that small-​family-​owned shop feeling. Do yourself a favor and check this place out– it rocks!!!

For Stones and Gems Henry has it all: selection and information, all at a very good price.
Highly recommend for all your healing crystal needs!
Ask for Shungite!

The owner is very helpful and knowledgable. He will help you with projects. I did not feel pressured to buy something. And he is very warm and you feel comfortable looking around. The store has a large collection of rocks and gems and beads. And it looks like he will continue to grow his inventory.

This is one of my favorite stores in Santa Cruz! The owner is very positive and helpful. He is clearly knowledgable about the stones themselves and their metaphysical properties. I never feel rushed when browsing stones trying to find the perfect energy. The owner made some suggestions when I was looking for a stone for a particular purpose; It was clear his motive was to help and NOT to get me to buy the most expensive thing. In fact he encouraged me to go the more modest route.
I love this store and its energy!
