When it comes to selecting the right crystal for you, at the end of the day you know what is best suited to you. It comes down to whether you want to have the piece for display purposes, functionality purposes such as carrying the stone with you daily, meditation purposes etc.
Having tumbles can be easy for the reason of popping them in your purse or carrying them in your pocket. They can also be easier to lose.
Statement pieces are typically used for display only and can be taken down when you need them for meditation etc.
The level of energy or your connection to the crystal does not diminish based on its size. When choosing your crystal, sometimes you may hear the saying that the crystal chooses you. You may look in a cabinet full of stones and be instantly drawn to. You could hold 20 crystals and only 1 is standing out to you, most of the time that shows that it was meant to be. A lot of the time, customers will enter our store and love a crystal that may have sat on the shelf for a while. We believe the crystal was waiting for the right person to come along. You would be surprised with the amount of times a customer has been drawn to a crystal, read the properties card and been in awe or shock of how the metaphysical properties of that individual crystal is what they need in their life at the current time.
