Desert Treasures is a charming rock and gem shop located in Cave Creek, offering a gorgeous selection of rocks, geodes, gemstones, jewelry, and even fossils. Owned and operated by an archeologist, the store has been in business for over 50 years, providing customers with an excellent and diverse collection at surprisingly low prices. Customers praise the shop's fair pricing and the owner's helpful and knowledgeable approach, particularly in assisting beginners with crystal healing. However, some have noted the owner's discomfort with credit card payments, which can create an awkward atmosphere. The store is described as a must-visit destination, with visitors leaving satisfied and not empty-handed.
Assortment of rocks, crystals, minerals, and fossils at reasonable prices. Different sizes and price points. Did not find the polished chrysocolla I was looking for, but did come away with a very nice polished malachite. Pleasant and helpful sales person bubble wrapped the piece for me. Convenient parking directly outside... read full comment
