Welcome to Gemstone Collective.
Gemstone Collective was created in 2021 by Jess – a result of a lifelong fascination with all things rocks and minerals, a never-ending desire to create artful objects with natural components and traditional methods, and the constant pull to explore the natural world.
Through local Melbourne markets and creative workshops, Gemstone Collective offers a collection of items and experiences.
Gemstone Collective welcomes you to visit the store at a market (check socials for upcoming market dates and locations) or browse the collection online at any time.

Statement Crystals
Mindfully sourced crystals
Alongside local, hand-dug crystals, an array of intriguing statement crystals, perfect as home décor or for meditation and other practices are offered at Gemstone Collective. We offer raw crystals, points and terminations, clusters, tumbled stones and more.
These are sourced from a variety of trusted suppliers and locations, on a local and global scale.
Hand-collected crystals
There is nothing quite like collecting your own crystals from nature – I collect these treasures from designated prospecting locations across Victoria. Sometimes, this involves wading through creeks or digging for hours, days, or even weeks, into iron-rich soils and clays.
The crystals found on these gentle adventures are available as interesting specimens for collectors, whilst the more water-worn creek-finds are placed in the rock tumbler to be tumbled and polished for four weeks, in-house. High quality crystal points and specimens are turned into jewellery.
Handmade collections
As a small business, specialising in natural items and handmade products, no two treasures will ever be the same.
Solid silver jewellery
All handmade silver jewellery items are handcrafted by myself, using a mix of 925 sterling silver and 999 fine silver. I create silver jewellery items using three main methods – the lost wax process, soldering and cold forming methods.
Macrame jewellery
A collection of handmade jewellery items are created combining the natural beauty of crystals and the intricate patterns of macrame. I create many of these pieces deep in the bush, whilst taking a break from digging and fossicking for gems.
Other handcrafted items
A collection of other handcrafted wares and accessories are available, including macrame crystal sun catchers, keyrings and other one-off items.
