In this <strong>tenth episode<\/strong> of the Stack of Stones community podcast, I talk with Ed Richard about a topic that is rarely discussed but sooner or later becomes relevant to every enthusiast: <strong>de-collecting<\/strong> &#8211; the opposite of collecting. <\/p>\n\n<p>What are reasons to de-collect? How do you decide what stays and what can go? And how do you deal with the practical or emotional challenges involved? We talk about making choices, clearing out collections, donating, selling or repurposing pieces as well as the benefits it can bring. An episode for anyone who collects &#8211; or has ever done so.    <\/p>\n\n<p>This <a href=\"https:\/\/stapelvanstenen.nl\/en\/about-the-value-of-de-collecting\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"236952\">article<\/a> summarizes our conversation with concrete practical tips for consciously and thoughtfully winding down, transferring or de-collecting your collection. <\/p>\n\n<p>Want to hear more stories like this about the interesting world of stones?
