Denver Gem Show 2026 — Private Sourcing Deposit

I walk the Denver Gem Show so you don't have to.

15 slots only. September 10–20, 2026. I'll be on the show floor in Denver — the same aisles, dealer tents, and back rooms where I source everything at Crystals.com. For fifteen people, I'll shop it personally, for you.

Completely risk-free. Your $100 deposit is credited in full toward your purchase — and if nothing at the show is right, it converts to store credit. You never lose it.

Reserve your slot now — when they're gone, they're gone.

This is how everything here gets found

Every piece on Crystals.com was chosen the same way — in person, in daylight, turned over in my hands at a dealer's table. Last June that meant the stone courtyards of Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines in France, watching lapidaries cut material feet from where it was sold. In September it means Denver: hundreds of dealers, ten days, and the best pieces gone by the time they'd ever reach a website. The photos on this page are from those aisles. For fifteen people, I'm bringing you onto the floor with me.

How it works

1. Reserve your slot. Your $100 deposit holds one of 15 places — and every dollar of it is credited toward your purchase.
2. Tell me what you're hunting. Within 24 hours you'll get a personal email from me with a short intake: the piece you're dreaming of, your space, your budget.
3. I send you the floor. Photos and videos of your candidates, straight from the dealer tables — you approve before I buy. Nothing is purchased without your yes.
4. Your deposit becomes your discount. The $100 comes off your total at checkout.

What you get

• Direct access to dealer relationships and back-room material that never reaches the open market
• First look at every daily show drop, before it goes public
• Specimens inspected in hand — condition, videos/ photos and provenance questions asked for you, in person

Fifteen places. One of them can be yours — add your deposit to the cart to hold it.

The fine print, plainly

• 15 slots, first come first served — once they're filled, the list is closed.
• Change your mind, or nothing at the show is right? Your $100 converts to store credit — you never lose it.
