Family-run shop that started as a cart and now has customers from all over the world

Located on The Colonnades at the Royal Albert Dock, Natures Treasure is a family-run shop specialising in crystals, minerals and jewellery.

The family-run shop has been a firm fixture at the docks since 1986, having started out as a cart on the Anchor Courtyard. With crystals rising in popularity in recent years, the shop has gained a loyal fanbase - with some customers even coming from overseas to visit each year.
