CRYSTAL CLASSICS FINE MINERALS SUMMER OPEN DAY 2016
Saturday 4th June
After months of renovation works, redecoration, dusting and vacuuming our Somerset based showroom was finally ready for the 10am grand unveiling. In conjunction with the opening of our showroom our new website (www.crystalclassics.co.uk) went live with a mega 100 worldwide specimen update.
The new showroom before opening
Customers were treated to a bacon roll and coffee before they formed an orderly queue outside the showroom front door.
Who would be first through the door of our new showroom?
Amongst the new collections that we have purchased in recent months is the Charles Rashleigh Mineral Collection. This collection was found and brought to us in its handmade wooden presentation box and had its original identification labels with the minerals. Although this collection was not available to purchase it was displayed for everyone to enjoy.

It was lovely to meet with customers old and new and we would like to say a very big thank you to everyone who attended and made the opening of the refurbished showroom a great success.
Don’t forget to visit our new website and we look forward to seeing you all again soon.
