Think back to when you were a child. Back when curfew was your streetlamp and you had a million games that could be played outside. Whether it was sticks, dirt, or flowers, there was always something out there to be played with. One of the best games by far had to be a game of marbles. Drawing a circle and betting your prettiest pieces against others was all the rage, and everyone played for keeps. (Except me, because I didn’t want to lose!) This marble shop in Kansas is one business you won’t see just anywhere, dealing in childhood wonders and gorgeous glass.

The Moon Marble Company has been operating since 1997 in Bonner Springs, a smaller town near Kansas City. They carry works of art from a handful of glass artists across america, as well as many other things that are a little more sturdy.

They also carry oodles of other marbles that aren’t made in-store, (that would take forever!) most of which, you can buy by the pound, handful, or in singles. Whether you’re in need of boulders, targets, shooters, or just pieces to collect, they’ve got em.

They also carry vintage style toys, jokes, and other innocent things you don’t ever see in large toy stores anymore.
