Meaning & history
Rose quartz gets its soft pink color from trace amounts of titanium, iron, or manganese within the quartz structure, and it ranges from pale, near-white tones to a deeper dusty rose, sometimes with fine internal veils. In crystal tradition, it's known as the heart stone, associated with love, compassion, and gentle self-care, and it's closely linked to the heart chakra. Many people carry a small piece in a pocket or keep one by the bed as a daily companion, or pair it with other stones for love and happiness. Because this tear drop is natural, tone, clarity, and exact shape vary piece to piece — see more in our rose quartz collection.
How to use it
Carry your rose quartz tear drop in a pocket or bag as a daily companion, hold it over your heart during meditation, or keep it on a nightstand as a gentle nightly presence. It also works well added to a self-care ritual — take a slow breath while holding it whenever you want a small moment of comfort during the day.
Care & cleansing
Rose quartz is durable (Mohs 7), so a gentle rinse under cool water and a soft-cloth dry are fine. Extended direct sunlight can fade its color over time, so store it out of a sunny windowsill when not on display. To cleanse it energetically, try moonlight, sound from a singing bowl, or a light pass through sage or palo santo smoke.
