Description

This 1.5-inch rose quartz angel is hand-carved by Brazilian artisans from natural pink quartz, chosen for its warm color and smooth polish. Despite its small size, the angel’s delicate wings and graceful form are carefully defined, allowing light to pass softly through the translucent stone.

Each piece is individually shaped to enhance rose quartz’s natural glow — a soft, soothing pink that embodies timeless elegance and craftsmanship.


Geological Background

Rose quartz is a macrocrystalline variety of quartz (SiO₂), colored by trace elements of titanium, manganese, and iron within the silica lattice. It forms in pegmatitic environments where slow cooling allows uniform color distribution and internal clarity.

Brazil, particularly Minas Gerais, is one of the world’s leading sources for premium rose quartz — prized for its even tone, polish durability, and subtle inner luminescence ideal for fine carvings.

History & Cultural Context

For thousands of years, rose quartz has symbolized beauty and tenderness, from ancient Egyptian jewelry to Roman carvings. Brazilian lapidaries continue that tradition, shaping the stone into gentle angelic forms that express empathy, peace, and mindfulness.

This 1.5-inch version captures the intimacy of handcraft — a small guardian-like figure reflecting the artisan’s precision and the stone’s natural harmony.


Symbolism & Meaning of the Angel Form

The angel embodies kindness, reassurance, and peace, while rose quartz represents love, emotional balance, and tenderness. Together, they create a symbol of serene compassion:

  • The soft pink tone reflects calm affection and care.

  • The angelic figure conveys comfort and guidance.

  • Combined, they express gentle strength through empathy — a quiet companion for moments of reflection or gratitude.

Collectors often choose smaller rose quartz angels as gifts of friendship or as meaningful tokens for bedside or meditation spaces.


Aesthetic & Collector Evaluation

Each carving varies slightly in hue, from pale blush to deeper pink depending on mineral density. The polish reveals a subtle translucence that glows when backlit, giving the angel a serene radiance. The 1.5-inch size offers refined detail in a compact form — perfect for travel, display trays, or thoughtful keepsakes.


Care & Handling

Clean with mild soap and lukewarm water, then dry with a soft cloth. Avoid strong chemicals or prolonged exposure to sunlight, which may lighten the natural color. Store separately to prevent scratches from harder stones.
