Rose quartz, known as the stone of love, is one of the most beautiful and sought after varieties of quartz. Its delicate pink colour is due to the trace elements titanium, manganese and iron. This mineral forms in igneous and metamorphosed rocks and is found in several important deposits around the world. Among the most famous are Brazil, Madagascar, South Africa and India.
Rose quartz has a rich history - in ancient Egypt it was associated with the goddess of love, Isis, and was believed to bring beauty and eternal youth. The ancient Greeks and Romans used it as a talisman of love and harmony. In the Middle Ages, rose quartz was valued for its calming and protective properties.
In esotericism, rose quartz is considered a stone of love, tenderness and emotional healing. It helps to open the heart, promote self-love, harmonize relationships and remove negative energies. Due to its smoothness, tumbled rose quartz is ideal for meditation, massage or as a personal talisman.
