Physical Characteristics: A silicon dioxide crystal. Hardness of 7. The quartz family (silicates) is quite large, and varieties are found all over the world. Quartz is piezoelectric--when pressure is applied it produces electromagnetic energy, and when electrical current is applied the crystal will oscillate. Quartz crystals have been harnessed in everyday items such as watches and cellular phones. Small stones are $0.20, medium sizes are $0.60, and large are $0.95 each.
Metaphysical Properties: Rose Quartz has a very loving energy. It is also a very gentle energy, helping to restore calmness after chaos or difficult situations. These tumbled pieces can be very helpful in body layouts, and can help balance all of the chakras--especially the heart and crown chakras. Rose Quartz can help to heal emotional wounds. It also helps to release toxins. Tumbled stones are perfect for pocket or medicine bag stones, though they may get scratched if they are soft.
