Welcome to the Gemstone Eggs Collections.
The purpose of this new website, formerly known as ” La passion des Minéraux & Fossiles ” (1997-2004), is to present my polished mineral eggs (or gemstone eggs) collection and the best specimens of some of my collectors friends.
They are around 480 eggs from all over the world in my collection.
This site is ordered by chronological number according to the purchase date. All the missing numbers are eggs which are no longer in the collection because they have been sold or exchanged.
Some eggs are available on this site for purchase or exchange [see the exchange page]
