Don’t be alarmed by the carved-wood dinosaur at the door: This 50-year-old rock-and-mineral emporium is far from kitschy. There isn’t anything made from gems that owner Dennis Tanjeloff, who has a collection of stones from all over the world, doesn’t stock. Thankfully, the goods are not all for serious rock collectors, so even if you loathed earth science in middle school, you can still find goodies to go home with. Create your own designer-looking necklaces out of multicolored stone pendants ($10–$25) or add some color to your ensemble with a wide selection of bright stone earrings ($15). Vibrant gemstone candleholders ($48–$59) will bring a little nature to your pad.

If you love crystals and minerals, you might also want to check out ROCK STAR CRYSTALS in midtown Manhattan. They have thousands of crystals and minerals specimens (little and big) at reasonable prices. Although smaller than Astro, a visit to this store is an awesome experience. Find out for yourself and call 212 675 3065 or go to www.rockstarcrystalsmanhattan.com. They also have a hugh collection of crystal skulls and other items cut from gemstones like massage wands, jewelry, pendulums, pyramids, animals, hearts, and merkaba.
