How to Pick the Best Crystals to Gift

Top tips to pick the best crystal jewelry for everyone on your list

Crystal jewelry – whether in the form of necklaces, earrings, bracelets or anklets – make an amazing gift for everyone (including yourself!) 

Not only are crystals beautiful, but they have been gifted for thousands of years because there is so much more to them. When you give a crystal, you also share their beautiful energies with a friend or loved one. Whether you want to bring more love into their life, wealth, calmness or health – the best crystals are those you choose with intention. 

Choosing the best crystal jewelry to give as a gift can be as impulsive as just picking the stone that jumps out at you, choosing one that is their favorite color, gifting them crystal jewelry with their birthstone, or it can also be purpose-driven with a very specific intention in your mind. 

Maybe you love crystals and know how they can impact your life and want to share this with someone special. Maybe something is happening in your loved one’s life, and you wish to give them something special that bolsters their strength. Or maybe you wish to amplify or change your relationship with them. 

You can give many different crystals as gifts, but the best crystals hold particular meanings that make giving them to a particular person all the more special.  Crystals truly are gifts that give twice, meaning that not only are you giving your loved one a beautiful piece of jewelry, but you are also giving them the energetic power the crystal holds.

And by gifting crystal jewelry, your loved ones can keep these talismans close to their heart, benefitting from their magical energy – whether they believe in it or not – every single day.

Here are six easy ways to make sure you are picking the best crystals to give your loved ones – that will keep giving back to them year after year.

2. Give a gift with a healing intention: 

Crystals are beautiful visual reminders of our intentions – when we gift them to ourselves or our loved ones. But they are so much more too. Since all natural elements on this planet have a specific energetic vibration, crystals have been given for thousands of years to enhance the recipient’s life and bring intentional energies into their realm. 

Gifting crystals as jewelry to wear allows you to give a gift that taps into the tremendous power and strength of crystals on an unconscious level – whether or not the recipient believes in the energetic impact of them. The best crystals to give are those aligned with intention and can be worn every day adding both beauty and good vibes.

When picking the best crystals for gifts, we recommend considering the energetic properties associated with each of them and curating a gift that is centered around the impact you want to manifest for your loved one, whether it’s boosting their mood, managing stress or helping them lead with love.

Here are the well-known properties of some of the most popular and best crystals to give with meaning and intention:

 

Rose Quartz is one of the most popular crystals to gift as it encourages universal and unconditional love. Known for its great healing properties, rose quartz dispels negative energy and radiates the frequency of love, inviting only loving, positive interactions and experiences.

Amethyst is a powerful crystal to give to those who have a high level of stress and anxiety as it is known can improve a negative mental, or emotional, state. Amethyst jewelry can help the wearer realize their true potential and worth, connecting them to the higher self. It is also a fantastic stone for meditation, clearing nervousness and replacing with calm focus.

Quartz is a compelling, versatile crystal that provides the wearer with many benefits. A magnifier, it amplifies the wearer’s positive qualities while dispelling the negative traits that can leave them feeling stuck. Quartz jewelry is very popular as it can bring clarity, raise your vibrations, and elevate the wearer’s self-esteem. It also amplifies the impact of other crystals it is stacked with.

Amazonite is the perfect gift to give a creative individual, as it will enhance their innovative capabilities and fill them with inspiration and vision. Wearing amazonite jewelry allows the wearer to transmute their creative ideas into physical forms, and is a beautiful crystal to use for manifestation.

 

The best crystal for enhanced creativity is amazonite.

3. Choosing By Favorite Color 

Sometimes, you will be drawn to a certain color of crystal for the best gift. This is your intuition leading, often connecting you to a crystal’s properties without knowingly considering its healing properties. You may just pick crystal jewelry based on your loved one’s favorite color, not even realizing how perfectly it aligns with their personality and needs.

Surprisingly, even colors you or your recipients are drawn to, often indicate the crystal energy that is most beneficial for them.

For instance, blue and green crystals bring harmony, communication and beautiful energy to the surface. The color of water and the sky, these crystals are all about going with the flow – and being in the flow! Tula Blue’s labradorite pendant is a favorite crystal gift, as it symbolizes a drop of ocean while bringing calm, protection and heightening intuition.

Pink crystals represent gentleness, calmness, compassion and love. Just like a beautiful valentine, pink crystals are the best crystals to give those that are craving joy, love and contentment. Red tone crystals represent passion and the pursuit of one’s life mission.

Earth-tone crystals are grounding and often appeal to those who feel disconnected and stressed. Clear crystals, and the color white, symbolize peace, purity and evolved thought. These crystals bring clarity for decision-makers and can raise your vibe.

Choosing your crystal by favorite color ensures it will be a great gift.

4. Symbolizing And Evolving Your Relationship

Crystals can also help improve and expand your relationship. The best crystals to gift are those that serve as a physical reminder of your internal intentions for your relationship – whether that is love, vulnerability or calmness. Well-chosen crystal jewelry can also help keep your recipient centered and grounded, which can be beneficial in relationships.

The most effective way to gift crystals in this manner is to buy both yourself – and your recipient – the same crystal to super-power your intentions. 

 

Rose Quartz is the stone of love. You can elevate your relationship, making it one of the best crystals to give someone you love and adore. Rose quartz is a perfect stone to gift to your family as well – helping you strengthen bonds and deal with differences, letting you nourish love and compassion. And if someone has lost a friend or family member, it’s also a beautiful memorial stone to assist in grieving and remembrance.  

Pyrite is the best crystal to give to those you work with who would benefit from clarity in their chosen career, strength during a challenging time, and improved business relationships. Wearing a Pyrite necklace, earrings or bracelet also attracts abundance in the recipient’s life, so if you have a loved one experiencing financial difficulties, this is a perfect gift. 

Red Jasper is one of best crystals to give your crush! If you wish to be more intimate with someone, giving them Red Jasper can strengthen both your romantic and physical bond. 

Lapis Lazuli is the best crystal to gift someone ill or challenged with health issues. Lapis Lazuli strengthens immunity – so a necklace, anklet or bracelet is the perfect crystal gift.

Moonstone is the best crystal to give your mother, daughter or sister as it is a beautiful way to strengthen feminine bonds.  A Moonstone necklace or ring helps your loved ones accept all we cannot change and lead with love, grace, and compassion. 

Larimar is the best crystal to give someone like a new mother as it promotes relaxation and calm. Larimar jewelry is a great gift for anyone going thru stress and brings calmness to volatile relationships.

The best crystal symbolizes your relationship.

5. Selecting Based on Zodiac Sign

6. Crystals Aligned with Chakras

The name Tula Blue was inspired by the Sanskrit word “balance”. And the best way to achieve that balance is to ensure your chakras are in balance.

Originating in ancient India, chakras are energy centers in the body that are believed to be vital for physical, mental, and emotional well-being, proving everything is interconnected. The word "chakra" comes from the Sanskrit word for "wheel," and they are often depicted as spinning wheels of energy. There are seven main chakras, each located along the spine from the base of the tailbone to the crown of the head and each of which is aligned with crystals.

The goal with chakra healing is to balance and open these energy centers for an overall sense of harmony through the mind, body, and spirit. This can be done through a number of practices like yoga, meditation and crystal healing.

The best crystals to give align with the chakra the recipient would benefit from healing. 

For instance, rose quartz can heal the heart chakra, helping to soothe old wounds, grow trust and improve unconditional love. Amethyst connects to the crown chakra nurturing calm and serenity. Labradorite heals the throat and third eye chakra, as a tool of communication and intuition. And Black obsidian keeps you protected, connecting to your root chakra.

 

Gifting the Best Crystal Jewelry Means Gifting Magic

Alchemy is always present when it comes to stone magic. By giving the gift of crystal jewelry, you harness that magic and give a gift that gives so much more. 

And by intentionally choosing pendants, anklets, bracelets or earrings with the intention of healing chakras, improving your relationships, introducing good vibes or strengthening their positive qualities, you can’t go wrong with a beautiful gift of crystal jewelry from Tula Blue.
