Crystal jewellery gives you not only a lovely piece of jewellery but also a great way to give and wear healing crystals. I have picked out some of my favourite pieces of jewellery, with two of our most popular crystals: amethyst and turquoise.

Amethyst Crystal Jewellery

Amethyst is a very popular crystal for jewellery and it is easy to see why. It displays beautiful colour and has a lovely shine, especially when faceted and polished. In crystal healing, amethyst is said to have a very soothing effect and a powerful healing energy. Amethyst crystal jewellery is surprisingly affordable and makes a great gift for Christmas. My personal preference is for amethyst with a deep colour but the paler varieties of amethyst are also very beautiful and give very glamorous sparkle.

Turquoise Crystal Jewellery

Turquoise crystal jewellery is always a great choice for Christmas gifts. Turquoise has been prized but Native American culture for thousands of years for luck and protection. I have to say that turquoise is one of my favourite crystals because it just looks wonderful. It is traditionally paired with silver, which really highlights the colour of the crystal jewellery.

Beautiful Amethyst Jewellery

If you are looking for an extra special Christmas gift for someone special, I recommend you take a look at amethyst jewellery. Amethyst is a beautiful gemstone and here at Crystal Age we have an excellent range of amethyst jewellery to suit any budget. Amethyst is found in a few different colours but in my opinion, purple amethyst will always be the most glamorous. There is something about the depth of colour and shine that you get with fine amethyst that just lights up your whole look. Amethyst is not a very expensive gemstone, so amethyst jewellery often gives you a very stylish, impressive looking piece at a low price.

Healing Power of Amethyst

In crystal healing, amethyst is believed to have a powerful and soothing healing energy. It is said to soothe away stress and clear the mind, allowing us to attain a greater understanding and spirituality. It is believed to heal the entire body, relieving pain and strengthening the immune system. Amethyst is the birthstone for Pisces, Virgo, Aquarius and Capricorn. It is aligned with Ajna, the Third Eye Chakra. This chakra is a seat of learning and spirituality, which reflects the deeply spiritual nature of this gemstone.

Amethyst Jewellery Picks

We have a wide choice of amethyst jewellery but below are three of my favourite pieces. I’m a big fan of gemstone pendants because they let the beauty of the stone shine through. Both these amethyst pendants contains stones with a lovely rich, vibrant purple and they come alive with colour when the light hits them. The amethyst trilogy ring is also a delightful piece, featuring a large purple amethyst flanked by two clear topaz.

In this post I am going to feature a couple of my personal favourites, but to browse the whole range I recommend visiting our unique crystal balls page. Crystal balls can be used in many ways and they are beautiful objects. Polished crystal balls have traditionally been used for scrying and clairvoyance. The best crystals for this are usually quartz and obsidian. They are also ideal for crystal healing and mineral collecting. One advantage of using crystal balls in healing is that a sphere radiates energy equally in all directions, enhancing its ability to affect a space or person.

The dramatic markings of this chevron amethyst crystal ball make it a very attractive piece. It displays excellent white chevron markings almost all the way around the circumference of the sphere.
