A popular ‘bricks and mortar’ shop in Perth’s northern suburbs has confirmed it’s closing its doors, much to the dismay of its devoted customers. Crystal and Stone issued the ‘heavy’ news on Instagram, saying the decision wasn’t made ‘lightly’ either. “Our beloved physical store will be closing its doors .

.. it’s brought a wave of emotions as we reflect on the countless beautiful memories we’ve created together in this sacred place,” the emotional post began.

“Our store has been more than just a place to buy crystals; it’s been a sanctuary of connection, a home for the incredible souls who’ve walked through our doors. “We’ve laughed, learned, and healed together, building a community that radiates love, inclusivity and positive energy.” Owners Dyl and Jay let devoted customers know that they would have until September 22 before they shut their doors but that they would continue running their business online.

“We will continue to connect with you through our online presence and ongoing LIVE SALES, carrying forward the spirit of Crystal & Stone. “This isn’t goodbye ..

. but the beginning of a new chapter in our story.” In a follow-up post, they later confirmed why they were forced to shut their doors.

“It’s due to the current economic climate,” the post began. “We tried to hold on; we did everything we could. This was the hardest decision we’ve ever had to make.

We hoped we could make it and wait it out, but we couldn’t.�.
