Who is behind the Prospector Store?

Geraldine Mills is the founder and curator of the Prospector Store. She has had a varied career working in publishing, advertising and interactive, visual arts and retail. But her heart has always lead her back to art, fashion and retail.
Growing up partly overseas she was exposed to grand old mansions, castles , elaborate gardens and different “ways of seeing” early on. While on these fact finding missions she would always made sure she had enough pocket money left over to buy something exotic and unique from whatever foreign land she was visiting at the time. And so hence her early prospecting days where cermented.
Since those early days Geraldine’s quest for discovering new things and sharing them with others has only grown. A keen “op shopper” throughout her teenage years and into her artschool days saw her develop a unique style which was like no others.
She has had a promising career which still continues as a visual artist, painting, drawing and photography are Geraldine’s true passions in life. She very excited about sharing some other talented people with you.
The need to open , run and design the Prospector Store came from a growing urge to say something on a grander scale. And the result is an exciting new concept store which will have you coming back for more. We hope you love the prospector store as much as we do and find your own little piece of gold amongst the many great pickings on offer.
