Collection: Other Minerals and Crystal Specimens | The Old and Curious

Not every remarkable mineral fits neatly into a category — and some of the most interesting specimens are the ones that don't.

Our Other Minerals & Crystals collection brings together an ever-changing selection of individual mineral species, unusual combinations and fascinating specimens that sit outside our larger specialist collections.

Expect everything from classic mineral species to lesser-seen discoveries, distinctive crystal habits, unusual associations and specimens chosen simply because there was something about them we couldn't leave behind.

Each piece has been individually selected for its natural character, geological interest and display appeal, with specimens sourced from mineral localities around the world.

As particular mineral species grow within our collection, some may eventually gain dedicated collections of their own. Until then, this is a wonderful place to explore the less easily categorised corners of the mineral world.
