- Rose quartz belongs to the large family of silicates, subgroup of tectosilicates. It has a high hardness of 7/10 on the Mohs scale. Most often, it has a translucent appearance, more or less cloudy. Rose quartz can present a very sought-after asterism effect. This is the presence of star-shaped rays of light. It is then called star rose quartz. The etymology of the name quartz comes from "quaterz" which means "bad ore".
In the Middle Ages, the term quartz included all crystals. In the 16th century, a German scholar decided that the term quartz only referred to rock crystals. The etymology of the name quartz would then come from the German "gewärz" meaning outgrowth. The first traces of rose quartz appear in Mesopotamia (Iraq), around 7,000 years ago. Then, quartz is found all over the world, in different civilizations, in various forms. It is most often found in the form of jewelry, figurines, amulets, but also in the manufacture of tools (chisels, polishers, etc.) and even arrows. In ancient Egypt, rose quartz is ground into powder and used as a cosmetic for its purifying qualities. Archaeological excavations have discovered beauty masks, in the form of ointments, in tombs.
Today, rose quartz is still used in the composition of some beauty products. Mythology links rose quartz to the cult of Isis, goddess of divine youth. Many other civilizations associate rose quartz with the goddess of love, who has a different name depending on her origins: Aphrodite in Greece, Venus in Rome, Astarte in Phoenicia (Lebanon), Isaar for the Assyrians and Turan for the Etruscans. In Greek mythology, the unfortunate story of the lovers Aphrodite and Adonis is told. Ares, Aphrodite's jealous husband, sent a wild boar to kill Adonis. Aphrodite, informed, rushed to save her lover. During her run, she injured herself on a thorny bush and when she arrived, Adonis was already injured: their blood then mixed. They crystallized and gave birth to rose quartz.
In ancient Rome, the Romans made and created all kinds of seals. Rose quartz stone is the stone commonly used for cutting these ring-shaped seals. In the Middle Ages, its Roman seals were widely used for the decoration of all kinds of crowns, vases, relics, etc.
In China and Asia, rose quartz is used for jade carving or for making statuettes, especially of Buddha. Rose quartz figurines also represent animals, birds and flowers. In France, in the 17th century, rose quartz statuettes, called "chinoiseries" were very fashionable and Louis XIV became a great collector.
The main deposits are located in Brazil, Madagascar, South Africa, Australia, etc.
