Geode & Mineral Display Stands - The Geode Gallery
Below we have a selection of six different sized display stands for geodes, minerals, or other specimens. These plastic stands are your basic three peg stands (one small peg in the front and two pegs with higher relief in the back), or a double stand for two halves of a matching geode pair (essentially two single stands put together and at an angle).
This page is provided as a convenience to those who would like to have stands for their specimens. As we are not in the business of selling display products, we only offer these six different-sized stands below due to their popularity and demand from our customers for displaying geode pairs and mineral specimens. We do not carry other stands or stand types than what is shown here, and there are no quantity discounts. Please contact your nearest supplier for other stand types and/or other display products.
To order with any major credit card, check or money order, or Paypal, simply click on "Add To Cart" and enter the desired quantity. You can also call (309) 335-6740 if you do not wish to order online. See Ordering Information for more ordering details.
Single Stands
The following four stands are single stands. Remember, if you are buying stands for a matching geode pair, you need to buy TWO stands (one for each half) if you wish to have both halves displayed. Please double-check your quantity ordered when you check out.

We will be happy to "custom-fit" the proper-sized stand for specimens in your collection or specimens that you order from our website. To save on shipping, stands can be sent with the specimens and due to virtually no additional weight, in most cases you will not incur any additional postage charges when sending the stands with the specimens. Simply let us know your wishes and we will be happy to accomodate you.
Additionally, those who have visited us at shows have noticed that we display many of our specimens on high quality wood display stands. These are professionally prepared for us by Steve Reutlinger of Monadnock Mineral and Display in New Hampshire. Steve does fantastic work and pays attention to details, and is more than willing to work with you on your mineral display needs!
