About Us
In 2004 Gemini started a small company called Adventurer’s Mart whose ethos was to provide a supermarket style shopping experience but with quality costume and props for the live action role play (LARP) market. After trading at numerous events Adventurer’s Mart was renamed in 2014 and became Gem’s Trading Co.
To this day Gemini makes all manner of character cloth costume and leather work and props. All custom-made pieces are unique and, in most cases, lovingly hand made in the U.K. We also sell a vast range of products produced by U.K. crafters within the hobby that have all been carefully chosen for their quality and durability, and many other items of interest such as archery ammunition, make up and much more can be found both on our stall and on our website.
Gem's Trading Co trades at most Curious Pastimes events, Empire events, Lorien Trust events plus many others and across the internet via our web shop - www.LarpGems.Com
