World of Science Crystal Gems Digging Kit — Real Gems, Real Discovery

There are five genuine gemstones hidden inside this solid plaster block — and it's your child's job to find them. Using the included chisel and brush, young geologists chip away layer by layer, revealing real mineral specimens buried within. Every stone uncovered is a genuine piece of the Earth, unique in colour, shape and natural character.

And because the wait is the hardest part, every kit includes a free genuine quartz crystal point from Morocco — so the excitement starts the moment the box is opened.

The dig experience
Armed with the chisel, children work carefully through the plaster, brushing away dust to uncover what lies beneath. It's slow, satisfying and enormously rewarding — the same sense of discovery that drives real palaeontologists and geologists in the field, scaled perfectly for curious minds at home.

Before starting, lay newspaper down to protect surfaces and wear old clothes — plaster dust is part of the process and part of the fun. Take it slowly near the gems to avoid chipping the stones themselves.

What's in the box:
• Plaster dig block containing 5 different real gemstones
• Chisel digging tool
• Dust cleaning brush
• Bonus: Free genuine quartz crystal point from Morocco

Why this kit stands out:
• Real gemstones — not plastic replicas or painted rocks
• Five different specimens mean five different moments of discovery
• The free Moroccan quartz point is a beautiful standalone piece to keep and display
• Develops patience, fine motor skills and a genuine appreciation for earth science

A brilliant gift for birthdays, Christmas and school holiday projects. Ideal for children aged 8 and over who love crystals, gems, fossils and the natural world.

Safety information:
Adult supervision is required at all times. The chisel has functional sharpness — always supervise children during use. Plaster dust is produced during digging; lay newspaper to protect surfaces and wear clothing you don't mind getting dusty. Contains small parts — not suitable for children under 3 years. Please read all instructions fully before use.

This Privacy Policy describes how and when I collect, use, and share information when you purchase an item from me, contact me, or otherwise use my services through Etsy.com or its related sites and services.

This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of third parties that I do not own or control, including Etsy or any third party services you access through Etsy. You can reference the Etsy Privacy Policy to learn more about its privacy practices.

Information I Collect

To fulfil your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorised Etsy to provide to me), such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and the details of the product that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information (for a custom order of jewellery, for example), if you contact me directly.

Why I Need Your Information and How I Use It

I rely on a number of legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:

- As needed to provide my services, such as when I use your information to fulfil your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support;

- If necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law; and

- As necessary for the purpose of my legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as 1) providing and improving my services. I use your information to provide the services you requested and in my legitimate interest to improve my services; and 2) Compliance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use. I use your information as necessary to comply with my obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

Information about my customers is important to my business. I share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:

Etsy. I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you my services and comply with my obligations under both the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.

Service providers. I engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop, such as delivery companies.

I will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.

Business transfers. If I sell or merge my business, I may disclose your information as part of that transaction, only to the extent permitted by law.

Compliance with laws. I may collect, use, retain, and share your information if I have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to: (a) respond to legal process or to government requests; (b) enforce my agreements, terms and policies; (c) prevent, investigate, and address fraud and other illegal activity, security, or technical issues; or (d) protect the rights, property, and safety of my customers, or others.

Data Retention

I retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide you with my services and as described in my Privacy Policy. However, I may also be required to retain this information to comply with my legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce my agreements. I generally keep your data for the following time period: 4 years.

Transfers of Personal Information Outside the EU

I may store and process your information through third-party hosting services in the US and other jurisdictions. As a result, I may transfer your personal information to a jurisdiction with different data protection and government surveillance laws than your jurisdiction. If I am deemed to transfer information about you outside of the EU, I rely on Privacy Shield as the legal basis for the transfer, as Google Cloud is Privacy Shield certified.

Your Rights

If you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal information. While some of these rights apply generally, certain rights apply only in certain limited cases. I describe these rights below:

Access. You may have the right to access and receive a copy of the personal information I hold about you by contacting me using the contact information below.

Change, restrict, delete. You may also have rights to change, restrict my use of, or delete your personal information. Absent exceptional circumstances (like where I am required to store data for legal reasons) I will generally delete your personal information upon request.

Object. You can object to (i) my processing of some of your information based on my legitimate interests and (ii) receiving marketing messages from me after providing your express consent to receive them. In such cases, I will delete your personal information unless I have compelling and legitimate grounds to continue using that information or if it is needed for legal reasons.

Complain. If you reside in the EU and wish to raise a concern about my use of your information (and without prejudice to any other rights you may have), you have the right to do so with your local data protection authority.
