Stone 101
The pink one. Its colour comes from fibres too tiny to see.
Rose quartz is soft, milky pink quartz that seems to glow a little in your hand. Shop hearts, spheres, towers, tumbles, rough chunks, bracelets and more.
The basics
Rose quartz is quartz with a blush. Scientists found its pink comes mostly from microscopic fibres of another mineral packed inside. Those fibres also give it that cloudy, milky look.
It usually forms as solid masses, not pointy crystals, so it's great for carving. Hence all the hearts and spheres.
Rituals, not rules
These are traditions people enjoy, not promises. Pick the one you keep coming back to.
Care
Straight talk
Natural rose quartz is common, so fakes are mostly pink glass or dyed quartz. Glass looks too clear and even, sometimes with bubbles. Some of our pieces are aura-plated for a metallic shimmer, and those say so in the title.

Good questions
Rose quartz is traditionally linked with love in all its forms: romance, friendship and being kind to yourself. That's why it's such a popular gift, and why hearts are its classic shape.
People use it as a reminder: a heart by the bed, a bracelet on the wrist. It's an easy, pretty first crystal.
Yes. It's the pink variety of quartz, the same mineral as clear quartz, amethyst and citrine. Same hardness, same care, just a different colour.
Real rose quartz is a bit cloudy, with soft, uneven colour. Pink glass often looks too clear or too bright, sometimes with bubbles.
