About GlassStaff
Europe's biggest tabletop dice brand is still a workshop full of nerds in Boskoop, the Netherlands, designing everything in house because we wanted it for our own tables first. Behind these doors: why players choose CritStones, our story, the people who design it all, the press facts and where to buy.
Why CritStones
The case for the crest.
Why players pick us over the cheapest listing: designed in house, warehouses in the EU and the US, backed for life, and 4.95 / 5 from 7,471 verified reviews, independently collected.

The CritStones Promise

The CritStones Promise
Roll them for life.
Every CritStones die is guaranteed for life: one free replacement per player, postage on us, whether you bought direct or from a stockist. The page also shows how to file a warranty claim.

The trade wing
Wholesale & events
For shops that want things on the shelf their customers have not seen elsewhere, for brands with a world of their own to put on a die, for anyone hoping to catch us at a convention, and for the open roles at the workshop and on the road. Already stock us? POS materials for the shelf and the Wholesale FAQ are here too.
Stock CritStones
The trade counter.
Run a game shop? Products the competition does not carry, packaging built for the shelf, your own account manager rather than a ticket queue, warehouses in the EU and the US, and the CritStones Promise travelling with every die you sell.
