This large Rose Quartz Sphere is big one to hold. Many people love holding a crystal during meditation or when focused upon letting more love into your life. Let it be a statement piece in a group of crystals supporting you personally or bring in beautiful energies to your home or office.

Like all medium to large pieces of this crystal type, you can see growth lines. This is from earthquakes and floods making a mineral more or less scarce at times and depositing some inclusions as the crystal grew as a mass. It is rare to find rose quartz crystals, an interesting phenomenon. Madagascans have a wide range of shades and this one has a pink that moves into the lavender tones.

Rose Quartz is the stone of love and harmony. A sphere this size would look beautiful to attract loving harmony in your relationships.

The rose quartz ball has a “splash mark” but it is not affecting the polish. Price includes a metal stand to sit it on.

Helps alleviate negative thought forms and energies, reducing stress.
Enhances love, confidence and creativity which have been supressed by a closure somewhere in the heart's energy.

Shamarah's intuitive insights

Stone for those who give a lot of love and support to others but feel "wrong" to receive it themselves. It reminds the holder to let love in because the cycle of giving and receiving love builds the love you have to be stronger. When you keep noticing the rose quartz it is often a message that you have many in the physical and spiritual realms ready to support you - so let them in to give you a hand. Stones of fertility don't just mean pregnancy, but also the development (pregnancy) and birth of your creative endeavours - your projects.

Special Notes

It most often grows in masses - never even finding a leading edge of crystal points.
Occasionally found in crystal cluster form and was officially given own name of Pink Quartz but that has now gone.
Rose quartz occurs in pegmatites - it forms at very high temperatures, between 400 and 700 degrees Centigrade.
The color is usually considered as due to trace amounts of titanium, iron, or manganese, in the material.
- Recent X-ray diffraction studies suggest that the color is due to thin microscopic fibers of possibly dumortierite within the quartz.
"Star" Rose Quartz has microscopic rutile needles which produces an asterism in transmitted light.
The crystalline form in elestial in form was originally not called rose quartz and was called Pink Quartz.
- Often over grew smoky quartz.
- Found to leach very fast in UV light!
- Synthetic versions exist.
- These days all forms are called Rose Quartz.
Irradiation may cause the formation of smoky quartz color centers and add a gray tone.
Streaks of orange can occur from iron coating.
Mostly used for jewellery and decorative objects.
