Choosing the Rose Quartz bracelet :tips and buying guide

Updated: Mar 17



Rose quartz is a coveted gemstone for its soothing properties and association with love and serenity. However, the increasing popularity of natural stone jewelry makes it crucial to distinguish a genuine rose quartz bracelet from an imitation. This buying guide offers expert advice to help you in your choice.

How to recognize a genuine Rose Quartz bracelet ? (and avoid counterfeits)

The authenticity of rose quartz relies on several essential criteria to avoid counterfeits.

  • Characteristics of authentic Rose Quartz

    • Natural color and variations

    A genuine rose quartz exhibits a soft hue, ranging from pale pink to more intense pink. Its color is generally slightly milky and may contain natural nuances.

    • Transparency and inclusions

    Unlike glass or plastic imitations, genuine rose quartz is never perfectly uniform. It may contain fine inclusions and irregularities that attest to its natural origin.

    • Temperature and feel

    Natural stone is cooler to the touch than synthetic materials. If you feel immediate warmth when holding the bracelet, it is likely an imitation.

    • Hardness and resistance

    Rose quartz has a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale, meaning it does not scratch easily with a common metal object.


Signs of a counterfeit


Plastic or tinted glass beads

An imitation may appear too perfect, with artificially bright and homogeneous colors.

Absence of natural variations

A genuine rose quartz exhibits subtle nuances and irregularities. An overly uniform color is often a sign of counterfeiting.

Resistance and temperature

A real stone is heavier than plastic and retains coolness. Try scratching a bead with a sharp object: if it scratches easily, it is probably not genuine rose quartz.

Excessive shine

Glass or resin counterfeits often have an overly pronounced shine, while genuine rose quartz has a softer, satin finish.


Where to buy a quality Rose Quartz bracelet??

To ensure the authenticity of your bracelet, favor specialized and reputable points of sale.
