DID YOU KNOW...
Rose quartz is one of the most desirable varieties of quartz. The pink to rose red color completely unique, unlike any other pink mineral species. The color is caused by iron and titanium. Rose quartz is found in Madagascar, India, Germany and several localities in the USA--including right here in southern California.
Much rose quartz was extracted from a famous site near Custer, South Dakota, but now, most of the worlds supply of good carvable rose quartz comes from Brazil.
MATCHING EARRINGS AND MORE ROSE QUARTZ IN MY EBAY-BOUTIQUE:
Brazil is also the only source of true well formed crystals of rose quartz.
All rose quartz was believed to be only massive, found primarily in the cores of pegmatites. This lack of crystals is somewhat of a curiosity because quartz crystallizes into well formed crystals in all its other macroscopic varieties. So amazing are the rose quartz crystals that the first ones discovered were dismissed as fakes by mineralogists from around the world.
ALSO... Interesting Facts about Jade
Jade has been treasured in China as the royal gemstone, "yu" for 5,000 years. The character for jade resembles a capital I with a line across the middle: the top represents the heavens, the bottom the earth, and the center section, mankind. The word "yu" is used in Chinese to call something precious, as in English we use gold.
For thousands of years, jade was a symbol of love and virtue as well as a status symbol.
In Central America, the Olmecs, the Mayans, the Toltecs all also treasured jade and used it for carvings and masks. The Aztecs instituted a tax in jade, which unfortunately led to the recycling of earlier artworks.
The history of jade in Europe is not quite as distinguished. Although prehistoric axes and blades carved from jade have been found by archeologists, most Europeans were unfamiliar with jade as a gemstone for jewelry use until the sixteenth century when jade objects were imported from China and, later, Central America.
