About this Rose Quartz bracelet

A classical stone of unconditional love and deep emotional resonance.

History

Artefacts of rose quartz date back to 7000 BCE in ancient Mesopotamia, where the stone was used in early jewellery and seals. The ancient Egyptians and Romans traditionally incorporated the mineral into talismans and facial masks, associating it with the preservation of youth and beauty. Classical mythology frequently linked the stone to Aphrodite and Venus, the goddesses of love. The name derives simply from the stone's delicate pink hue and its inclusion within the broader quartz family.
