It isn't apparent to me why Celebrimbor would have endowed the Three with different respective powers. They weren't intended for any specific user, and the "Fire", "Air", and "Water" designations may have thus been only for cosmetic reasons with respect to their stones.
The purpose behind their making was to promote general healing and preservation, and that power would have to have been drawn from the
fea of the maker(s). The specific use of that power and its manifestation would have been colored by the individual will and desires of the keeper.
