As a patron since they were located on State St., New Haven, eons ago, The Rock Garden is one of my favorite shops to go to for raw/tumbled crystals/stones and related jewelry-making supplies. It is apparent that the items they carry are carefully chosen; having so many unique &/or hard-to-find items. The selections are thoughtfully-displayed, and the space is open and filled with light. The owners and staff (past/present,) have always been warmly welcoming, and kindly shared their knowledge when I've had questions.
