The Barker Gallery is a family-run fossil and mineral business built on more than four decades of hands-on experience in sourcing, preparation, and curation. Our work spans museum-grade specimens, private collections, and carefully selected pieces offered directly to collectors.

Much of our inventory is sourced in Morocco, where we maintain long-standing relationships with miners, preparators, and dealers we trust. This allows us to work close to the material—selecting specimens at the source, overseeing preparation, and ensuring ethical acquisition and accurate provenance at every stage.

Our collection ranges from scientifically significant fossils to visually striking display pieces, with a focus on quality, authenticity, and respect for deep time. Whether supplying institutions and retailers or sharing one-of-a-kind specimens through our gallery and livestreams, we approach every piece with the same standard of care and expertise.

We’re passionate about what we do and always happy to share our knowledge. If you have questions about a piece or are looking for something specific, we invite you to reach out using the contact form below.
