1. Shark Crafts: long term relationships on the road!
Married 53 years! This dedicated couple has been involved with selling Shark Crafts for almost as long (JAWS came out 48 years ago). Anyhow, this is the type of unusual dealer you'll see at the Hart Gem Shows. The video was shot at the Spring NJ Gem Show in May 2025. Already in September - comes the
Denver Gem Show - in just over 4 weeks! I'll be there myself. Email me: CrystalConcentrics@gmail.com for more information. Â

3. Native American Art: stone sculpture from Canada!
I try to stop by this shop once a year - they've got great turnover - and admirable (as in large) price points (that make me jealous, as a store owner). I captured here some of my favorites, but there were a number of others that were share-ably worthy. Native American (or as they call them: First
Nations) wood-carved and painted art from the Northwest and the Inuit (pka Eskimo) stone carving are very attractive to me, but the retail pricing is so high that I don't have a market for them in my circles. Maybe one day...please Subscribe to my YouTube channel...email CrystalConcentrics@gmail.com with any questions.
4. Perspective: (some current thoughts on Life)Â
 Was great to get away this past week - visit some family in Canada - go to the Stratford Theatre Festival (and also visit the cool store featured above).  Now I'm under incredible duress - I think I have to get my Denver pallets together
over the next FEW days - so I'll be busy with that, as I ALSO have to prep for West Springfield (to which I'm going on Wednesday).
The NYT - and every misinformed "social justice warrior" - continue to spread "blood libels" (which is when you accuse someone of something preposterous and untrue, and most who hear it then concur and amplify it, even if it gets debunked and is later apologized for)...sigh...today marks the destruction of the ancient
temples in Jerusalem (due to the same types of intolerant instincts toward erasure). Â Email Kyle@CrystalConcentrics.com with any questions.
 Follow me on Facebook - scroll down to see the F icon - to join the fun...I repost videos from creators who are more eloquent than I...and hopefully you'll hear them in spite of the algorithm prefering to bury such content.
