Crystal Point

Finding us can be a bit tricky if you aren't looking closely. Crystal Point is located in Building Number 7 inside the Zeenat Co-Operative Housing Society. We are right on German Bakery Lane in Koregaon Park, which is a pretty famous spot, but our actual office is much quieter than the main street. It’s an old building, and you have to walk past the parked scooters and the watchman’s chair to get to us. Inside, it smells a bit like incense most of the time because we like the way it covers up the musty smell of the old walls. We have shelves lined with all sorts of stones and crystals we’ve gathered. Some are dusty, and some we keep under glass if they are small. It’s not a big corporate showroom. It feels more like someone’s living room that got taken over by a hobby. We spend a lot of time just sorting through new arrivals or talking to people who wander in after getting coffee nearby. The windows don’t let in much direct sun, but the neighborhood trees keep the place cool. We don't have a lot of staff, usually just one or two of us here to answer questions or help someone find a specific shape of stone. It’s a slow-paced kind of place where we don’t rush anyone. We just like being part of this little corner of Pune where things feel a bit more relaxed.
