Lapidary / Gem Dealer

This mine and lapidary is a family-run business in Peru that specializes in hand-polished stones. One brother is in charge of the mining, exporting and sales. The other brother manages the lapidary in Lima, Peru. The business sells exclusively at gem shows in France, Germany and the United States.

Sourcing Relationship

I first met the owner of the mine and lapidary at the 2014 Tucson Gem Show. At that time, he was set up with a single table and the only major Gem Show he attended was in Tucson. While most lapidaries sell their polished stones in pre-packaged bags by the pound or kilo, this seller allowed me to cherry pick through his stock and buy only the best. Since then, his spot in Tucson has expanded to four tables under a tent and he now sells at two of the major European shows. It has been fun to watch our businesses grow. Every Tucson Show, we go out to dinner and eat Peruvian food together.

When tarnished, either naturally or artificially, Chalcopyrite takes on brilliant iridescent colors and is called Peacock Ore. Chalcopyrite is a wonderful stone for meditation. It clears the mind and helps us to move forward on our personal quest for Enlightenment and deep abiding peace. […]
