A charming little gnome hand-carved from soft blush rose quartz, with a tall pointed hat and a gently smiling face. The stone shades from deeper pink at the cap down to a creamy, almost translucent white at the base. A gorgeous one off piece!

Traditionally regarded as the stone of unconditional love, and long kept in the home as a quiet companion for the heart.
 
Cool Facts:
The pink colour comes from microscopic mineral fibres related to dumortierite threaded all through the quartz - not from a single colouring element.
Massive rose quartz almost never forms proper crystal faces, which is exactly why it is carved rather than displayed as natural points.
Rose quartz beads have been found in Mesopotamia dating back to around 7000 BC, making it one of the oldest worked gemstones we know of.
