Crystal chips bring the energy and colour of natural gemstones into your hands — in a form that invites making, arranging, and quiet contemplation. These fragments, smaller than tumbled stones yet larger than dust, hold all the character of the stones they came from. Whether you are drawn to the soft warmth of rose quartz, the grounding depth of black tourmaline, or the pale shimmer of moonstone, crystal chips give you the freedom to work with gemstone energy in ways that feel deeply personal.
What you will find in this collection
Our crystal chips are sold in generous 1 kg bags, giving you real substance to work with rather than a handful of fragments. The range spans both individual stone varieties — including amethyst, tiger eye, clear quartz, carnelian, green aventurine, and red jasper — and curated mixed gemstone chips for those who prefer a varied palette. All are natural gemstone chips, selected to be used rather than simply admired behind glass.
Choosing your crystal chips
If you already know which stone resonates with you, start there: black tourmaline for grounding, amethyst for calm, rose quartz for warmth. If you are drawn to variety, the mixed options bring different energies and colours together in one bag, which many people find makes a beautiful starting point for grids or crafts. Because these are sold in bulk, you have enough to explore freely — and that sense of abundance is part of the appeal.
Ways to use crystal chips
The possibilities are as varied as the stones themselves. Tumbled stones and crystal chips work beautifully together in layouts — use the chips to fill a crystal grid, surround a larger point, or layer into a decorative bowl. For jewellery making, crystal chips can be strung, wired, or set into resin — their irregular shapes catch light in a way that polished beads rarely do. In meditation, keeping a small dish of chips nearby adds tactile presence to a practice: hold a few, feel their weight and temperature, let them anchor your attention.
Crystal chips are also a natural fit for the chakra hub on our site — each stone variety carries its own energetic association, and working with chips in this way connects the physical act of handling the stones to a broader intention. Browse our Shop by Crystal page to find the variety that speaks to you, or explore our Chakra Crystals range for curated pieces that pair beautifully with loose chips.
Frequently asked questions
How much is in a 1 kg bag of crystal chips?
A 1 kg bag contains a generous amount — enough to fill a medium-sized crystal grid, create several pieces of jewellery, or fill multiple decorative bowls around the home. Because chips vary in size and shape between stones, the exact number of pieces will differ, but the weight gives you a reliable, usable quantity.
Can I mix different stone types together?
Absolutely. Many practitioners choose to combine stones deliberately — pairing grounding stones with calming ones, for example — and the mixed gemstone chips in this collection are curated with that intention in mind. You can also select individual varieties and blend them yourself to create a combination that feels right for you.
Are the chips suitable for crystal grids?
Yes, crystal chips are a popular choice for grids. Their small, irregular shapes allow you to pack them closely together or scatter them in patterns that larger stones cannot achieve. A 1 kg bag of chips is typically enough for several small-to-medium grids, depending on the layout you choose.
How should I care for my crystal chips?
Keep them in a dry place, ideally in a cloth bag or sealed container to prevent scratching between pieces. Like all crystals, they can be rinsed gently under cool water if you wish to cleanse them — simply pat them dry afterwards. Avoid harsh chemicals or prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which may affect the colour of some stones over time.
Can I use crystal chips for jewellery making?
Yes. Crystal chips for jewellery making is one of their most popular uses. Their organic shapes work well in wire-wrapped designs, beaded strands, and resin pieces. You may wish to sort them by size before starting a project, as chips within a single bag can vary in dimensions.
