Description

Locality: Madagascar

Approximate size: 22 cm (8.5 in) diameter

This one-of-a-kind rose quartz sphere is a large, hand-polished ball of soft blush-pink quartz, its colour deepening to a warm peachy rose in places and softening to milky white in others. Look into it and you will see a network of pale internal veils and fine healed fractures that catch the light, giving the stone a gentle, glowing depth rather than a flat colour. It makes a calm, eye-catching centrepiece. The black stand shown in the photos is for display only and is not included.

Rose quartz is the pink variety of quartz. It almost always forms as massive material rather than distinct crystals, deep in granite pegmatites, and its soft colour comes from microscopic fibrous inclusions of a pink borosilicate mineral related to dumortierite scattered through the quartz. That same fibrous structure is what gives good rose quartz its slightly cloudy, luminous look. Large, evenly coloured masses big enough for a sphere this size are uncommon.

At 7 on the Mohs scale, rose quartz takes a fine polish and is durable, though its colour can soften if left in strong sunlight for long periods.
