Peak Lapidary and Mineral Society


NamePeak Lapidary and Mineral Society
CountryUnited Kingdom
Websitehttp://rockexchange.uk/
DescriptionThe Peak Lapidary and Mineral Society is based in the Peak District of Derbyshire and has been in existence since the early 1970s. We have a well equipped workshop in the village of Tideswell and are happy to welcome anyone with an interest in minerals, lapidary and associated crafts; members are always willing to share their knowledge and enthusiasm.

A variety of lapidary skills are available, ranging from the simple cutting and polishing of beautiful mineral specimens, to cabochons, faceting, silver-smithing and jewellery. Collecting trips are arranged throughout the year, including the exploration of working and disused mines and quarries, with guidance and advice given on all aspects of mineral collecting.
