Edelstenen
De edelsteenindustrie van Sri Lanka kent een lange en kleurrijke geschiedenis. Sri Lanka stond liefkozend bekend als Ratna-Dweepa, wat 'Edelsteeneiland' betekent. De naam weerspiegelt de natuurlijke rijkdom van het eiland. Marco Polo schreef dat het eiland de beste saffieren, topazen, amethisten en andere edelstenen ter wereld herbergde.
Rose Quartz
Rose quartz is a pale pink variety of quartz known for its gentle hue and translucent appearance. Widely used in decorative objects and jewelry, this gemstone has lasting appeal due to its subtle beauty and smooth texture.
The stone exhibits a delicate range of colors from almost white to deep blush pink, caused by trace amounts of titanium, iron, or manganese. It is valued for its hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale, making it durable enough for everyday wear and decorative installations.
Culturally, rose quartz has been associated with themes of love, healing, and emotional balance. It is frequently found in tumbled stone form, carved sculptures, and polished beads, used by enthusiasts in crystal therapy, meditation practices, and as ornamental accents.
Rose quartz is sourced globally, with notable deposits in Brazil, Madagascar, and South Africa. The stone is usually heat- and light-stable, retaining its color over time. It remains popular year-round for both collectors and those who appreciate its soothing tone and symbolic meanings.
