Rose quartz

Rose quartz is a pink or rosy-colored variety of the mineral quartz, primarily composed of silicon dioxide. Known for its gentle, soothing hue, it often symbolizes love and compassion. Naturally occurring and often found in large crystals or masses, rose quartz commonly forms in pegmatites or as inclusions within other rocks. Its aesthetic appeal makes it popular in jewelry and decorative objects. The stone is also valued in metaphysical practices for promoting emotional healing and fostering feelings of harmony. Despite its beauty, it’s a natural mineral with specific physical properties, including a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale.
