Welcome

We specialize in rocks, minerals, fossils, equipment, beading supplies, gemstones, jewelry and jewelry repair!

But we do so much more! Look through our website to learn about our story.

Welcome to the Jerrys Rock and Gem website. We have been helping Rockhounds, Prospectors and Jewelers with needed supplies since 1956.  Yes, our shop has been located at 804 West Valley Hwy. Kent, Washington, since Dinosaurs walked the Earth…just kidding, but we do have a business that has been here for over 60 years, and our shop is filled with Fossils, Minerals, Gemstones, Beads and Jewelry, from all over the world.  Jerry’s is owned by Glen Saurdiff, a Graduate Gemologist, and his wife, Joan Simpson, who has advanced degrees in Geology and Paleontology.  

 

We carry a complete line of Tumblers, Grits, Rock Saws and Grinders, as well as Lapidary Supplies.  Besides cutting rock, making Cabachons, and faceting your Gemstones, we also design and create Jewelry in Gold, Silver and Platinum.  We provide complete Jewelry repair services, including Bead and Pearl stringing.  We are happy to identify your Rocks, Gemstones and Fossils, and provide appraisals.  We are open Tuesday – Friday from 10:00 to 5:30, and Saturday from 10:00 to 4:30.  You can e-mail us at jerrysrockandgem@msn.com or call us at 253-852-0539.  Better yet, if possible, stop by our shop.  

About Us

We got our start all the way back in 1954. We started with the name Jerry’s Agate Shop, named by the machinist Jerry Appleton. The new owners carried on the tradition by naming us Jerry’s Rock and Gem. Click to learn more.

We also feature a photo gallery on our site of rare rocks, fossils, and beads! Plenty for the average rockhound to drool over! Stick around to learn some more about our store.
