Love this store & love the deals. The girl who is usually working is super knowledgeable and friendly every time I come in (which is a lot). Also much more fairly priced than other crystal stores in the area while also selling jewelry making supplies that I don’t find anywhere else! Attached is a necklace I made all with materials from rare earth beads.

I've been going to Rare Earth Beads for years. One of the best stores for gem stones, variety and quality, in the area. I also got some of the traditional African beads there.
They no longer do classes I think because of covid but they do give advice and help as much as possible.

This was my first time here, and I had so much fun! I was shopping both for myself and for my son who is about to come for a visit, and the staff was incredibly helpful. My only complaint is that you just had too many beautiful things all at once, which made it hard to choose. Not much of a complaint, I know!

Broke my favorite bead bracelet. Jessica fixed it while I waited. Charge was $5! Fantastic! While waiting, I saw two new bracelets to purchase! I'm a wobbly senior who walks with a cane. I had a little trouble getting into the shop. So when I left, Jessica walked me to my car so I wouldn't fall! Who does that?

Such a wonderful shop. The crystals and the beads are beautiful. Some very unique pieces and the price is always right. The place to go if you are into jewelry creating.

I’ve been shopping here for many years. While the selection of individual beads has decreased, there are still plenty of beautiful strands, findings, tools and a wonderful (expanded/expanding) collection of high quality crystals. David, the owner and buyer, has a great eye. The staff is knowledgeable, enthusiastic, patient. I’ve found some real treasures.

It is always a pleasure to visit at Rare Earth Beads. I have been coming here for years. It is always so clean and organized with the greatest selection of beads , findings, gems, tools and accessories and mostly, a wonderful, knowledgeable staff. And in, what I call my therapeutic bead box, I, and friends, have literally spent hours sifting thru a cornucopia of loose beads, which have been taken down and unstrung from their regular selections, so that we can fill small bags with a terrific mix of beads, for just $5.00 each. Over the years I have been to several International and domestic bead shows and many wonderful bead shops in Albuquerque and Rio Rancho, New Mexico, Chapel Hill, NC. and Ashville, NC; but Rare Earth tops them all! It is my go-to spot for creative satisfaction.

It’s my new favorite place! I’m learning how to make wearable jewelry with beads and gems and all the tools and supplies I need are here. The beads and gemstone pieces are unique and beautiful, and the staff is very knowledgeable and perfectly friendly. I’m so happy I found this shop!
