The first time I ever saw rose quartz it was a lump of rock at my grandparent’s place up north by the lake. My grandfather held it up and explained what it was and how it came to be and what you could do with it. I thought it was treasure. Rose quartz has a special lace in my heart 💖 so I’m always happy to work with it. This particular piece was a great colour. Really pink, not just faded sort of pink.
There’s something feminine and soft and earthy about rose quartz in jewellery. It reminds me of flowers even in a simple design.
