Rose Quartz - Round

These delicate Rose Quartz cabochons are cut into classic rounds with a 6mm diameter and a 3mm high dome. Known as the "Stone of Universal Love," these cabochons possess a soft, translucent pink hue with a gentle, milky glow. Each stone is polished to a smooth finish, highlighting the subtle, romantic color that ranges from a pale blush to a deeper, misty rose.

Their petite size and soft color palette make them a timeless choice for feminine jewelry designs, including delicate stud earrings, multi-stone rings, or dainty accents in bridal jewelry.

Key Properties & Care

As a variety of macrocrystalline quartz, Rose Quartz is quite durable for everyday wear, though its color and clarity can be sensitive to the environment:

• Mohs Hardness: Rose Quartz has a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale. This makes it quite resistant to scratching and ideal for pieces intended for regular use, such as rings and bracelets.

• Cleaning: Use lukewarm water and a soft cloth. A mild soap is perfectly safe for cleaning quartz. Ensure you rinse the stone well to remove any soapy residue that could dull its natural glow.

• Maintenance:

  • Avoid Prolonged Sunlight: Rose Quartz can occasionally fade if exposed to intense, direct sunlight for extended periods. It is best to store these pieces in a dark place when not in action.

  • Avoid Chemicals: While quartz is hardy, avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals or hydrofluoric acid, which can damage the surface.

  • Avoid Thermal Shock: Like most gemstones, avoid sudden, extreme temperature changes (such as moving from a hot shower to cold air) to prevent internal fractures.

  • Storage: While Rose Quartz is hard, it should still be stored in a soft pouch to prevent it from scratching softer stones like Labradorite or Hematite
