About

Welcome to the Uncarved Block! My name is Pu Tzu and I am a modern day treasure hunter. I have scoured 5 continents in search of gems and minerals. I have had a passion for this for over 40 years and it is just about my favorite thing in the world.

I love the chase, and just having had the treasure is my fulfillment. I don’t feel the need to keep these treasures. Actually I don’t even have a place that I would keep them. I do, however, need to finance my obsession, so I offer these treasures to you at reasonable prices so that I can continue the journey and the adventure.

This way, we all win…. You get great treasures and I get to keep adventuring to get them.
