Essential Tips for Safe Crystal Care

Welcome to the safety hub of Elysian Crystals.

Your crystals are not just beautiful treasures but also tools to enhance your space and well-being. To ensure they stay in great condition and keep everyone safe, here are a few simple tips for handling, displaying, and storing them.

 

Caring for Your Crystals

Cleaning Your Crystals:
Clean crystals using a soft-bristled brush or a dry, clean cloth. Regular cleaning helps prevent the buildup of dust and dirt on the crystal's surface.

Energetic Care for Your Crystals:
Crystals also need regular energetic cleansing and recharging. Some crystals are not water-soluble or may be damaged if placed in water or left outside in the rain, while others can fade if exposed to sunlight for too long. If placing your crystal in sunlight, limit exposure to no more than 30 minutes.

 

General Safety Guidelines for All Crystals

  Handle with Care: Crystals are delicate and may chip, crack, or break if dropped. Some natural crystals may also have sharp edges or points, so handle them carefully to avoid injury.

 Not Suitable for Children Under 7: For safety, we recommend keeping crystals out of reach of children and pets. Crystals are not toys and may present choking hazards or other safety risks if mishandled. Always supervise older children when handling crystals, and take extra care with young children and pets prone to putting objects in their mouths.

Not for Medical Use: Crystals are intended for spiritual and metaphysical use, crystal collectors, and home decor or display. While they are beautiful and beneficial in many ways, they should not be used as a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment. Always consult with a healthcare provider for any medical concerns. Do not ingest.

Storage & Display: Store your crystals in a stable, safe place to prevent accidents. When not in use, consider placing them in a secure pouch or box. If you choose to display your crystals, ensure they sit on a stable surface. Some crystals may need a stand or cushion to prevent them from getting knocked over or damaged.

 Temperature Care: Avoid exposing crystals to extreme temperatures or sudden temperature changes, as high heat may cause them to crack or shatter. Similarly, very low temperatures can cause contraction and damage. Handle and store your crystals carefully to maintain their condition.

Crystal Safety by Type

  • Polished Crystals

    • Handling: Polished crystals are smooth but can still be fragile. Handle gently to avoid chips or cracks.
    • Storage & Display: Store them on a stable, even surface, and avoid high-traffic areas. They could be prone to scratching if placed on abrasive surfaces.
    • Use: Perfect for spiritual and metaphysical use, crystal collectors, and home decor or display. Do not ingest or use as a substitute for medical treatment.

  • Palm Stones

    • Handling: Palm stones are smooth but can chip or crack if dropped. Handle gently.
    • Storage & Display: When not in use, store your palm stones in a pouch or box to protect them.
    • Use: Great for meditation or wellness routines. Keep out of reach of children due to their size.

  • Natural Crystals

    • Handling: Natural crystals may have rough or sharp edges and points that could cause injury. Handle them carefully to protect yourself and the crystal.
    • Storage & Display: Store in a safe, stable place. For display, ensure the surface is stable and use a stand if necessary to accommodate irregular shapes.
    • Note: Natural crystals may not sit securely on flat surfaces due to their unique shapes. Consider using a stand, cushion, or display base for added safety.

  • Crystal Clusters

    • Handling: Crystal clusters can sometimes be fragile and may have sharp edges. Handle with care to avoid injury. Some clusters may shed small pieces or fragments, which is completely normal due to their natural formation.
    • Storage & Display: Display clusters on a stable, even surface to prevent them from being knocked over. Consider using a stand if the cluster cannot sit securely.
    • Use: Crystal clusters are often used in metaphysical practices, such as energy clearing or enhancing positive vibrations in a space. However, they should never be used as a replacement for medical treatment. Always seek professional medical advice if needed.
    • Note: Due to their irregular shapes, crystal clusters may not sit evenly on flat surfaces. A stand, cushion, or display base will help stabilize them and prevent tipping or shedding.

  • Crystal Pendulums

    • Handling: Pendulums can have sharp points or edges. Handle gently to avoid injury or damage.
    • Storage: Store pendulums in a dry, safe place. A pouch or box can help prevent tangling or damage.
    • Use: Ideal for spiritual or divination practices. Keep out of reach of children to avoid injury.

  • Crystal Tumble Stones

    • Handling: Tumbled stones are smooth but can still chip or crack if dropped.
    • Storage: Store tumbled stones in a safe place, such as a pouch or box, to prevent damage.
    • Safety: Keep out of reach of children, as some tumble stones may resemble small candies and pose a risk if ingested.
    • Note: Tumbled stones are perfect for decorative or wellness practices, but remember they are not a replacement for medical care.

  • Crystal Geodes

    • Handling: Geodes can have rough edges or break if dropped. Handle with care.
    • Storage & Display: Display on a flat, stable surface. Consider using a stand if the geode cannot sit securely. Keep out of reach of children.
    • Use: Geodes are decorative and metaphysical tools but should not be ingested or used as a substitute for medical treatment.
