Rose Quartz .925 Silver Earrings

Among the books, decks, and stones on 14th Street is this pair of earrings: Rose Quartz .925 Silver Earrings (shop SKU IGROQE55).

Rose quartz is the pink variety of quartz. In crystal traditions, rose quartz is associated with love, including love for oneself. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim.

Sterling silver is 92.5% silver, often stamped .925; like all silver, it can tarnish over time and can be brightened with a soft polishing cloth. Because the material is natural, its color and pattern vary from piece to piece. Store jewelry dry and away from lotions, perfume, and harsh cleaners to keep it looking its best.
