Slip on a gemstone bracelet in the morning and you'll forget it's there all day. The beads catch the light every time you move, a flash of color shows at your cuff, and you feel real stone against your skin. Each bracelet is carefully strung on elastic or thread, and the range of stones is wide enough that one usually jumps out at first glance.
All our crystal and gemstone bracelets
Classic round beads, rougher freeform stones, slim bracelets that stay discreet, multicolored designs and bracelets made from a single stone: there's plenty to choose from. For one bold, clear color, see our single-stone bracelets. Some designs carry a small charm or a gold-tone bead.
Which stone for your bracelet?
Each stone has its own meaning. Golden, striped tiger's eye is the stone of confidence and grounding. Turquoise-blue amazonite and blue-flashing labradorite are calming stones, and green aventurine is known as a stone of luck and calm. Other stones have their own pages too: hematite, garnet, tourmaline, aquamarine, citrine, turquoise, lapis lazuli, howlite and hawk's eye. If color is what draws you, browse our blue stone bracelets.
How to wear and stack bracelets
On a bare wrist, a single beaded bracelet catches the light and gets noticed. For a stack, play with texture and color: mix round beads, raw stones and braided cord, and keep to one color family so it all hangs together. Just make sure the fit is comfortable, not too loose and not too tight.
Choosing and gifting
Elastic fits most wrists, so sizing a gift is easy. Shopping with a particular intention in mind? Browse our good luck bracelets and protection bracelets, or our braided-cord Tibetan bracelets. As with every order, we plant a tree.

Round beads, raw stones or braided cord: which style?
Round beads are the classic: even 6, 8 or 10 mm spheres on strong elastic, worn alone or stacked. 6 mm beads look slim and subtle, 8 mm is the most versatile size, and 10 mm gives the stone real presence and suits larger wrists. For something rawer, our single-stone bracelets let the color do the talking, while braided designs and wrap bracelets go round the wrist several times like a soft cuff. And our slim bracelets with 4 mm beads go with anything, even under a shirt sleeve.
Choosing a stone by intention
Every stone carries a meaning, and that's often what decides it. For protection, obsidian, black tourmaline and tiger's eye are the most popular. For serenity, amethyst and moonstone lead the way. Pick rose quartz for tenderness and relationships, and aventurine or malachite for luck and fresh starts. Can't decide? Go for a multi-stone design, or a 7 chakra bracelet with seven stones in one rainbow. And if a color catches your eye straight away, trust it. It's often the best guide.
For men and women: a bracelet for every wrist
Stones have no gender, but styles do. Deep, matt shades, 8 to 10 mm beads and simple designs make up our men's gemstone bracelets, worn alone or next to a watch. Finer beads, soft pinks and milky blues feature more in the pieces picked for her. For a gift you can't get wrong, our gifts for her and gifts for him collect the favorites. Three stones have their own men's edit: tiger's eye, hematite and obsidian. For women, tiger's eye has one too: the women's tiger's eye bracelet.
Caring for a gemstone bracelet
A soft, dry cloth is all you need to polish the beads. Store the bracelet on its own, away from scratches and damp, and take it off before showering, swimming or exercise. Some people like to leave their stones out overnight in the moonlight, or rest them for a few hours on a quartz cluster or a selenite plate. Our guide to cleaning and caring for your stones explains this little ritual. Keep salt and long soaks away from soft stones such as malachite and selenite, as both can damage them.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find my bracelet size?
Measure your wrist with a tape measure, or wrap a piece of string around it and lay it against a ruler, then add about 1 cm (0.4 in) for a comfortable fit. Lengths run from 17 to 23 cm (6.7 to 9.1 in) and are listed on each product page. Most of our designs are strung on elastic and slip on without a clasp.
Which wrist should I wear it on?
The left wrist is seen as the receiving side and the right as the giving side, so many people wear their bracelet on the left to take in the stone's intention. Neither is wrong. Above all, choose the wrist where it won't get in your way.
Can I wear it in the shower or in bed?
In bed, yes, as long as the elastic isn't too tight. Take it off for the shower, the pool or the bath: long contact with water, perfume and lotion dulls the stones and wears out the string. Put your bracelet on last, on dry skin, and it'll keep its shine for a long time.
Are the stones real?
Yes, on every one of our stone bracelets. Each bead is cut from natural stone, with its own shades, veins and tiny inclusions, so no two bracelets are ever exactly alike. That's the mark of a natural material. Our Tibetan bracelets are the exception: they're made from braided cord and metal.

Your bracelets ship with full tracking and arrive in 7 to 15 business days. Shipping is free on 2+ items. You then have 30 days to change your mind, no questions asked. Every piece arrives in a linen pouch with no invoice inside, ready to give.
