Meet the Pretty Faces of Rose Quartz

hands holding three rose quartz spheres Are you familiar with the different faces of Rose Quartz? It's not just your average pink crystal!

What is Rose Quartz?

Rose Quartz is one of the most known and beloved crystals. It comes from various places in the world, yielding tones from pale to deep pink.

In crystal healing, Rose Quartz is best known for exuding and attracting love energy. It is the stone of relationships, helping to enhance current connections and/or attract new love interests.

The Pretty Faces of Rose Quartz

When I first began working with Rose Quartz over 20 years ago, it wasn't one of my favorite stones. I thought it was a little dull. Yet the more of these pink gems I encountered, the more I learned to appreciate the many faces of Rose Quartz, and now you can too. 

Star Madagascar Rose Quartz

My love for Rose Quartz began when I discovered the Star Madagascar variety. 

Star Rose shows asterism when illuminated by a point-like light source, like the incredible piece above. It is only found in a few locations such as Madagascar. 

The star is caused by light reflected from needle-like inclusions of rutile and the pink color is caused by a mineral similar to Dumortierite. 

Another thing I love about Madagascar Rose Quartz is that it has a semi-transparent quality. The piece above has nice semi-clear layers that reveal dazzling rainbows and inclusions that will win your heart.

Here I came across Madagascar Rose spheres that you would hardly recognize as Rose Quartz. They are so pale that they are almost white.

Although you may mistake it for Snow Quartz, look closely and you'll discover a hint of pink tint in the beautiful orb above. This natural sphere stirs up the passion and romance of Rose Quartz with its flames of golden iron.

Brazilian Rose Quartz

Aside from Madagascar Rose, Brazilian Rose Quartz is another beloved gemstone. I especially like the ones that boast a bolder pink like this large collectible piece above.

Strawberry 'n Cream Rose Quartz

Most Rose Quartz crystals show shades of sweet, traditional pink that we have all come to know and love. I especially like seeking out the ones that have amazing patterns, like this swirly strawberry 'n cream beauty with a heart formation in the center.  

Cupid's Watcher Rose Quartz

Lots of Rose Quartz is riddled with lines, crackles, veins, and minerals. That's just a part of nature and a prominent part of gemstones in general. They often add additional healing powers due to the presence of other minerals. Sometimes you get interesting shapes like this ominous white eye. I call it Cupid's Watcher. 

Wounded Warrior Rose Quartz

Sometimes you come across a crystal that has been wounded in its battle against the darkness. These are the ones we call Wounded Warriors. These Rose Quartz stones have emerged from their journeys with scrapes and scars, making them all the stronger for their future healing endeavors. 

Your Rose Quartz Journey

As my love and knowledge of crystals has expanded over the past decades, so has my love and knowledge of Rose Quartz. Now it's your turn to encounter some breathtaking Rose Quartz along your lovely gemstone journey.

Dear Adam,

Thank you for your email and your inquiry.

We don’t carry crystal lamps at our store.

Placing the crystals on the physical body allows the energy of the crystals to transmit directly to your chakras and aura. The result is much more effective than the light from a crystal lamp. Each chakra radiates out a different color, therefore, we use coordinated colored crystals to balance them. More importantly, our intuition will guide us through the healing process.

Please follow these links to find out about crystals on how to use them.

Hello Iam wondering if you have crystal lamps and Iam wondering if a quartz crystal lamp when turned on will heal all of the chakras just like when you pass a quartz crystal through them ? Does the quartz light have the same effect?

Sheila Satin - March 23, 2021

Hi Melisa, thank you for your purchase. You can also look under fire quartz or hematoid quartz.

Melisa - March 23, 2021
