The Heartstone Cross

This piece was commissioned for the Heartstone festival.    The cross is made from silver and rose quartz. Rose quartz is often called the 'heart stone'. It is associated with forgiveness and compassion and can create a wonderful calming influence. It is soft and delicate inspiring feelings of love and friendship. Rose quartz is said to help remove repressed anger and hatred and is said to remove negative influences such as jealousy and avarice.
