The
Ebersole family has been in the rock business since Leo got the "bug" in the early 1950's. The
"bug" turned into a full scale business in 1958 when a highway expansion moved us out of our old
location to a new shop west of Wichita on 54 Highway.
We
thought, at the time, that we would be there forever.
We grew and expanded over the years to become one of
the largest in the Nation, with our large mail order
department. But then in 2000, the highway department
decided it needed to expand again and we were again
deported. This time the move was monumental. It took
months to pack, build a new facility and move into our
new location at 5830 W. Hendryx.
We're still in west Wichita, just 4 miles east of our
old place, but this time on the north side of 54 Highway.
We're easy to find, just east of the Sam's/Wal Mart
location.

We've
worked long and hard to get our new facility ready for
business again and are ready and eager to serve you.
We're still your complete Lapidary Supplier. Check with
us when you need Lapidary supplies and equipment, jewelry
and silversmithing equipment and supplies and also,
a full line of art materials and supplies. We're your
"One-stop-shop" for your hobby needs.
Ada,
the matriarch of the family, is still working in the
office at age 89, oldest brother Len and wife Margaret,
travel to various Gem and Mineral Shows all over the
United States and get a chance to meet many of you,
(check out their Show schedule to see when they'll be
