Honest Rock Review: Zenkeeper Stone (2024)

I’ve ordered rough rock for either #rocktumbling or other #lapidary work from a few different places over the past few months, so I figured - hey, since I’m uploading to YouTube now, why not make some honest review videos?

Today I’m giving y’all my honest opinion on Zenkeeper Stone, a company you can order from on Temu*.   I’m pretty new to the rock tumbling and lapidary game so this is NOT an authoritative review!  You’re seeing the stone from this order for the first time at the same time that I am (“live unboxing” if you will), so please feel free to use that to form your own opinions!

And I did go back to find what I paid for these, so again, use that to form your own opinion.  (All prices are USD, and what you saw was one pound of each!)

Zoicite: $14.83/lb
Blue Apatite: $11.43/lb
African Bloodstone: $11.98/lb
Tiger Eye: $8.66/lb
Dragon Blood: $10.21/lb
Moss Agate: $5.08/lb

Drop me some comments down below and let me know if you’ve got some vendors you’d like see reviewed or would like me to check out in general; I’m always happy to patronize new establishments!

**NOTE: I am not in any way sponsored by any company mentioned in this review whatsoever!  (…but hey if there’s a vendor out there that wanted to send me some rocks for a review video, I MEAN…… I’m still gonna give a brutally honest opinion, BUT I do love free samples!  Haha!)

(*Yes, I know how the internet feels about Temu.  I promise that I do in fact support LOCAL AND INDEPENDENT ARTISANS AND VENDORS when it comes to lapidary work, and I will be reviewing some of those in future videos!)
