"Metalliferous rocks! They have the best selection of tools, metals, and findings in the area, as well as beads, books, and unusual, quirky stuff.  Metalliferous always has everything in stock, and they ship quickly and expertly. As a jewelry instructor, I rely on them to outfit every aspect of my classroom, and refer all my students to them for tools and supplies. And as a jewelry designer, I can always count on Metalliferous to have just what I need for my current project. Plus it's just fun to visit - you never know what you may find! An expert staff and great hours seal the deal for me: Metalliferous is MY source for jewelry supplies."

"is there a more amazing store in all of New York? For me there is nothing like it. Everything you could possibly need right there. Metallferous and the people there have been such a huge part of my life and business over the years. Always so supportive of the young designer (or in my case not so young) I think a lot of us in this business owe a real debt of gratitude to Anthony and of course the late great Peter Bovin"

“As a professional studio jeweler I rely on Metalliferous for tools, supplies, their excellent selection of silver findings and raw material as well as answers to the occasional technical or sourcing question.  As an educator at Pratt Institute, I send all my students to Metalliferous for one stop shopping.” 

From: Deborah Miller (NYC Jeweler)

“Metalliferous is an endless vat of goodies that any jeweler or hobbyist can dive into.  It’s entirely possible to loose yourself for hours on end digging through everything from base metal stampings to silver components and findings.  My all time favorite purchase has to be the mold for a doll head that sits with me on my jewelry bench.”

Metalliferous is a jewelry makers dream come true. There is no place else like it in NYC, and I have never found any place else like it in any other city. The variety of items offered, the ease with wich they can be found, the convenience of the store and the good prices are all a part of what makes Metalliferous one of the only places I visit almost weekly. In fact, it is the only store that I do visit with that frequency other than the grocery store! I can't imagine NYC without Metalliferous - since my very first jewelry course almost 10 years ago it has been an integral part of the backbone of my passion and, now, my business.
