How to use it
Display the skull on a shelf, altar, or as the centerpiece of a crystal grid. Some collectors like pairing it with other skull carvings in different stones, while others keep it as a single, quiet statement piece. There's no fixed ritual — enjoy it as a bold, loving focal point.
Care & cleansing
Rose quartz is a durable stone (7 on the Mohs scale) and tolerates brief water contact, but avoid prolonged soaking and keep salt away from the polished surface, which can dull the finish over time. A soft, dry cloth is usually enough to keep the carving's details clean and free of dust.
