Yoni Egg Sizes and Materials Explained

Yoni Egg Sizes and Materials Explained - Eco Period Australia

If you're new to yoni eggs, the range of sizes and stones can feel like a lot to take in. Here's the plain version, what the sizes actually mean, what each stone is, and how to choose between them.

Sizes

Our yoni eggs come in three sizes, Small, Medium and Large. The size refers to the physical dimensions of the egg, nothing more. There's no single "correct" size for everyone, it comes down to personal comfort and preference, which is something only you can judge for yourself. Many people start with whichever size feels most comfortable to hold and go from there.

One exception worth knowing: Nephrite Jade runs a size step up from the rest of the range. Our Nephrite Jade Small is closer to the Medium size in Obsidian, Rose Quartz, Green Aventurine or Amethyst, and the Nephrite Jade Large is bigger again, at around 50mm long. If you've tried another stone before and are adding Nephrite Jade to your collection, it's worth choosing a size down from what you'd normally pick.

Eggs are available individually in each size, or as part of a trio set that includes all three, which is a popular way to start if you're not sure which size you'll prefer. Trio sets are also available with a matching wand.

You can also choose between drilled (with a string channel) and undrilled eggs, depending on how you plan to use and store yours.

Materials

We stock yoni eggs in five different natural stones. Each one looks and feels a little different, and the price varies depending on the stone's rarity.

Obsidian. A deep black volcanic glass. One of our most popular stones, available as a single egg or in a trio and wand set.

Rose Quartz. Known as the original "love stone," a soft pink crystal that's long been associated with self-love and compassion. Available individually, in a trio, or as a self-love set with a wand.

Green Aventurine. Also called Indian Jade, a green crystal available individually or in a trio with a wand.

Amethyst. A purple crystal, available as a single egg, a trio, or a set with a wand.

Nephrite Jade. Our premium stone option, and the one range where every trio set is GIA certified, meaning the stone's authenticity has been verified by the Gemological Institute of America. The Nephrite Jade Trio Set includes all three sizes. Remember that Nephrite Jade sizing runs a step up from our other stones, see the sizing note above before choosing.

Across the range, our stone yoni eggs are GIA certified in batches, so you can trust you're buying a genuine stone rather than a dyed or synthetic imitation, which is unfortunately common with lower cost imports.

Single eggs versus trio sets

If you already know you want a specific size, a single egg is the simplest option. If you're starting out and want to see how different sizes feel, a trio set is better value and means you're not buying twice. Several of our trio sets also come bundled with a matching wand, which is a separate accessory some people like to use alongside their eggs.

Choosing a stone

There's no right or wrong stone to start with. Some people are drawn to the look of a particular crystal, others choose based on the story or symbolism associated with it, like Rose Quartz and self-love, or Amethyst and its long history in crystal practices. There's no medical or therapeutic claim behind any of this, it's a personal, empowerment-focused choice, so we'd encourage you to pick whichever stone speaks to you rather than searching for a definitive "best" option, because there isn't one.

A note on genuine stone

Because yoni eggs are sold online in huge volumes globally, it's worth being cautious about where you buy from. Dyed glass or resin eggs are sometimes sold as genuine crystal. Our Nephrite Jade range carries GIA certification specifically so you have that verification in writing, and our other stones are sourced and batch certified the same way. If you'd like more detail on how to tell genuine stone from an imitation, we've covered that in a separate post.

Caring for your egg by material

Care is largely the same across stones, though it's worth being a little more careful with softer or more porous crystals. Rinse your egg with warm water after use, wash with a gentle, unscented soap, and dry it fully before storing it away from dust. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners on any of the stones, they can affect the surface over time regardless of which crystal you've chosen. Nephrite Jade and Obsidian are both naturally hard-wearing stones, while Rose Quartz, Green Aventurine and Amethyst benefit from a slightly gentler touch given they're a little softer.

Price differences explained

You'll notice Nephrite Jade sits at a higher price point than our other stones, individually and as a trio. That reflects the stone itself, Nephrite Jade is a denser, harder wearing crystal and the range carries GIA certification as standard, and it's worth remembering you're also getting a step up in size at every tier. Obsidian, Rose Quartz, Green Aventurine and Amethyst are priced closer together, with small variations by size and whether you're buying a single egg or a trio with a wand. None of these price differences reflect quality shortcuts, they simply reflect what each stone costs to source.

Getting started

If you're brand new to yoni eggs, we'd suggest starting with a trio set in whichever stone you're drawn to. It gives you all three sizes to try, so you can work out your own preference without committing to a single size upfront. From there, you can always add a single egg in your preferred size once you know what works for you. And if Nephrite Jade is the stone you're drawn to, keep in mind its sizing runs a step up, so its Small may suit where you'd normally reach for a Medium.
