Founded in 1981 by Colin Simmons, Rotorua Rock & Gemstone Shop is based on a life time passion for stones and crystals. The store is still owned and operated by Colin and his wife Bev, with the help of their son Jeff and staff.
The shop stocks a beautiful selection of NZ Nephrite Jade (Greenstone) and (Pounamu) which is carved in New Zealand by local carvers.
You are guaranteed to find unique and beautiful gifts for all; no matter what your budget may be. There is a comprehensive range of natural crystals, rough rock, polished stones, stone jewellery in a variety of stone types and shapes (Chakra bracelets, pendants and stone kits), geological mineral specimens and much more!
A professional cutting and polishing service is also offered that will turn your rocks into slices suitable for working into stone art or cut faces to display as statement pieces to admire.
The family run business takes pride in supplying the highest quality gemstones and crystals sourced from ethical mines. A true leader in the industry, the shop offers quality products and shares their collective knowledge in both a holistic and geological sense.
The shop has proudly been New Zealand’s agent of ‘Lortone’ tumblers and machinery (the leading USA brand used for working and shaping stone) for over 40 years. As agents of ‘Covington’ heavy duty cutting, grinding, tumbling and polishing equipment and suppliers of quality diamond blades, belts, files, wheels, drills and grinding and polishing media, the team can assist with all your professional and hobby requirements.
