Ancient Artifacts and Treasures is a wonderful store! I don't know of any other store that has such a diverse selection of interesting, rare, beautiful and unusual "one of a kind" items under one roof. Where else can you go to find a lunar meteorite, 300 million year old fossil trilobite, two thousand year old ancient coin or an ancient ceramic work of art crafted by creative hands millennia ago? There are also many nice pieces of jewelry, unique decorative and collectable things that are very affordable and would make great gifts. John, the owner, is very knowledgeable in all aspects. He's always happy to provide interesting details and insight. Also, one can be confident that any item for sale is authentic and exactly as described.

Prices are very very reasonable which proves legitimacy and passion as well, he's in this line of business for the...
