As part of a larger trend that’s been on the rise, healing stone home decor (including crystals of all shapes and sizes) isn’t just about style. According to some holistic healers, certain stones, such as black obsidian and rose quartz, have cleansing properties that work with your body to reduce stress levels and promote restful sleep. Meanwhile, others like aventurine and green tourmaline help fight fatigue, balancing your chakras along the way.

The good news is that whether you believe in the mystical powers of these crystals or simply appreciate their gorgeous aesthetic, there’s no denying that they’re an eye-catching addition to any space. And the beauty of these inorganic beauties is that they work just as well with a wide range of inspired interiors, from boho and maximalist to sleek and contemporary.

For starters, they pair perfectly with a modern minimalist aesthetic thanks to their natural textures and formations. Plus, they’re available in an array of beautiful colors and shades that look great with any color scheme.

You can display these crystals in a variety of dreamy ways — from crystal crafts and jars to crystal pendulums and pyramids. But when it comes to figuring out what crystals are best for which spaces, experts say that it’s important to listen to your intuition, and if you intuitively feel drawn to a particular piece, don’t overthink it; the energy of the room will tell you where to place it.

Crystals that are ideal for entryways include amethyst, selenite and citrine. “Amethyst is a powerful protector that helps to protect your home from negative energy,” says Kewley. It’s also known to bring peace and clarity of mind, making it perfect for bedrooms or living areas.

Similarly, selenite is another great choice for entryways as it’s a white crystal that “encourages relaxation and balance,” says Sazwan of Crystal Hills. And, just like amethyst, selenite encourages peace and balance of the mind and body.

Citrine, on the other hand, is an excellent choice for dining rooms and kitchens as it brings in wealth, success, luck and prosperity. It’s also known to bring positive emotions and enhance your physical wellbeing, boosting your immune system and fighting off inflammation.
