Who is behind Ravenna Rocks?
Ravenna Rocks is a small brick & mortar shop in Northeast Seattle, located in the old Silhouette Antiques building just in front of the Roosevelt High School. We are neighborhood locals, and we bought this building in an effort to preserve the historic building and bring good vibes to the community. We are actively working to restore the attached residential space to open it up as a rental down the line.
We opened our doors in 2023 with a carefully curated and diverse collection of crystals, minerals, gifts, crafts, souvenirs, and more. We are passionate about crystals and their healing properties, and we believe that everyone can benefit from the positive energy that they bring. We also love supporting local artists and craftspeople, and we are always on the lookout for new and unique items to add to our shop.
We are committed to creating a welcoming and inclusive space for everyone. We believe that everyone should feel comfortable exploring their spirituality and connecting with the natural world. We hope that you will stop by and say hi, and we look forward to helping you find the perfect crystal for your needs.
How did Ravenna Rocks become a new local crystal shop?
Ravenna Rocks was born out of a love for our community and a desire to preserve the history of our neighborhood. When we first moved to Ravenna, we were immediately drawn to the charm of Silhouette Antiques and other neighborhood businesses. We loved the way the shop felt like a warm and inviting place to browse, and we were sad to see it close after Lucille passed away.
We decided to buy the building with the intention of preserving its history and creating a new space that would benefit the community. We knew we wanted to create a space where people could come together and connect with each other, and we thought a crystal shop would be the perfect fit.
We've been working hard to restore the building and create a space that is both inviting and inspiring. We've also been working to collaborate with local artists and craftspeople to showcase their work. We hope that Ravenna Rocks will become a beloved community space where people can come to connect with each other, explore their spirituality, and find unique and special gifts.
In the short time since we've opened our doors to the public, we have been overwhelmed by the wonderful support of our neighbors and community. We always love to hear that people are finding our shop to be a piece that was missing in the area - most notably it seems that the East West Book Shop left a massive hole in the hearts of many, and it is lovely to be bringing some of that energy back. Be sure to swing in next time you're walking by!
