crystal display storage

MichaelCarter79

How do you store your crystals? Mine are always left out on shelving, but i'm thinking of putting them in to small display cases or maybe setting up some kind of tray system to prevent the dust build up. Does anyone have any pre-built ideas or solutions?

Same here, I could really use some ideas on displaying my collection.

I bought a bunch of those plastic cube cases to store mine in and I think they look quite good. The only problem is that it's sometimes tricky with sizing as specimens are sometimes odd shapes. If you have pets or small kids I would definitely say a wall cabinet is best as you can display them out of reach.

Mine are just kept on a glass shelf, but you could always go for something like this... ?

In the end I bought a bunch of clear cases and have stacked them vertically on the shelving. It looks similar to the arrangement that NeonLights posted up. It should hopefully make it a lot easier to dust them.

How many minerals are you needing to display? Plastic cube cases are quite price effective if you have some existing shelving to sit them on. If you have fewer numbers of specimens, a wall hanging glass cabinet can look pretty good.
