A fine display of highly transparent rose quartz crystals perched on a handsome matrix of intergrown microcline and clear quartz. Several crystals are doubly terminated, with the centerpiece of the specimen being an impressive inch-long crystal – exceptional for the species – beautifully framed by a natural rosette formation. From Brazil's renowned Sapucaia mine, the source of the famous "Madona Rosa" and widely considered the premier locality for crystallized rose quartz worldwide.

NOTE: Although the term 'rose quartz' is used interchangeably for all pink quartz, these euhedral crystals vary from the more common cryptocrystalline form that used in lapidary work (cryptocrystalline rose quartz gets its color from inclusions of minerals like rutile, whereas these get their color from irradiated impurities of aluminum and phosphorus). Unlike the massive, anhedral variety, this 'euhedral rose quartz' is very susceptible to bleaching from UV light, even more so than amethyst, and is best kept away from any sunlight.
