What is a crystal necklace?

A crystal necklace is a pendant or beaded necklace made from a genuine healing stone, worn for meaning as much as beauty. Because it sits over the heart and near the throat, two of the body's most sensitive energy centres, a necklace is one of the most powerful ways to keep a crystal's energy with you all day.

People have worn gemstones close to the body for thousands of years, from ancient Egypt to traditional China. At AtPerry's we've hand-picked genuine crystal jewelry since 2015, so the piece you wear is the real thing.

The benefits of wearing crystals near your heart

Keeping a crystal close turns it into a gentle, physical reminder of the intention you set. Glance down at your pendant and you remember to breathe, to stay calm, to stay open. Many people also feel each stone carries its own steady energy, soothing for amethyst, loving for rose quartz, uplifting for citrine.

Best crystals for necklaces

Here are the most-loved stones for necklaces and what each is worn for:

How to choose your crystal necklace

By intention: start with what you'd love more of, calm, love, confidence, protection, and pick the stone above that matches.

By birthstone: a birthstone necklace is a deeply personal choice for yourself or a gift, and it's never the wrong size.

By chakra: match the stone to the energy centre you'd like to support, for example blue stones for the throat (communication) or green and pink for the heart.

How to care for your crystal necklace

Put your necklace on last, after perfume and lotion, and take it off before showering or swimming. Wipe it gently with a soft cloth, store it softly so stones don't scratch, and refresh its energy now and then on a piece of selenite or under the full moon.
