About Grounded

A Note From Our Founder

From a young age, I have been fascinated by gems and minerals.  Growing up near a quarry, I would spend hours of my youth chipping away at quartz and granite pieces.  In the 1970’s I traveled to Brazil where I started my gemstone and mineral business by purchasing gems and minerals from local dealers.  It has been an honor to be one of the few Americans to be brought directly to the mines. 

Since that time, I have developed a reputation for hand selecting pieces that are of high quality, rare, and aesthetically pleasing.  I have bought minerals on three continents and have exhibited in dozens of trade shows across the country.
