The rose quartz is a pale pink stone that’s part of the quartz crystal family.

Deeper pink varieties of the stone are sometimes called strawberry rose quartz. Lavender rose quartz varieties are pale purple.

Rose quartz is a mineral composed primarily of silicon dioxide molecules that typically form at about 752°F–1,292°F (400°C–700°C). The crystal can be found across the United States, Australia, Brazil, Madagascar, South Africa, India, Sweden, and Germany.

Rose quartz is perhaps best known for being the stone of unconditional love. It’s believed by some to emit a strong vibration of:

• love
• joy
• emotional healing

The rose quartz is believed to embody powerful healing qualities that may be beneficial both for physical and emotional health.

It’s said that rose quartz can:

• heal relationship problems
• promote mutual understanding
• inspire an attitude of compassion and kindness

It’s also believed it can boost feelings of:

• peace
• calm
• self-love

“Predominantly, rose quartz is a crystal of unconditional love that brings deep healing to the heart by opening the heart chakra,” Birch explains. “Once achieved, a deeper state of calmness, serenity, and peace is reached, which ultimately results in complete relaxation, encouraging the feelings of happiness and contentment.”

The rose quartz is also believed to have benefits for physical health, particularly when worn or carried on your body.
