About Stuart WilenskyTo simply state that Stuart Wilensky has a passion for minerals, is, for those who know him, a gross understatement. His commitment, expertise and pure love for minerals is undeniable. It is deep-seated, genuine and relentless.

As the son of art dealers, Stuart had the unique opportunity to travel, visiting many of the world's most iconic art museums. He graduated with a master’s degree in art history, furthering his esteem of the beauty and wonder that is art. 

It was a fateful encounter with a quartz crystal that would change his life. Accompanied by his wife Donna, Stuart decided to convert his passion for minerals into a livelihood. Heavily influenced by the famed mineral collector Peter Bancroft and his seminal Gem and Crystal Treasures book, Stuart began connecting the dots between the art world and the mineral world. The sheer beauty of minerals propelled Stuart's love affair with minerals and still does today.
