Built from 6mm strawberry Quartz beads matched for size before stringing, this strand sits evenly on the wrist and reads as one continuous run of colour.
Expect colour in the range of translucent pink to red, speckled with tiny mineral flecks. The flecks are inclusions of iron-rich minerals suspended in the quartz. They give the stone both its name and its granular sparkle.
Each bead is polished to a smooth, even finish that catches the light without reading as plastic. Because this is cut from natural stone, expect subtle variation in tone, translucency and internal texture from bead to bead — no two strands are identical, and that is the point.
Strawberry quartz is a trade name rather than a strict mineral species, with material coming mainly from Mexico and Kazakhstan.
Strawberry quartz is a modern trade name rather than an ancient one, and its meaning is correspondingly recent: in contemporary crystal lore it is associated with lightness and with small, everyday affection. Its speckled pink is unusually vivid for a quartz.
Easy to wear daily: substantial enough to read as jewellery, light enough to forget you have it on. It stacks well alongside both pale and dark strands.
Wipe with a soft dry cloth after wear and store away from prolonged direct sunlight to help preserve the colour. Avoid contact with perfumes, chemicals and ultrasonic cleaners.
The cultural associations described above come from traditional lore, folk custom and personal sentiment. This is a natural mineral piece sold as jewellery, and nothing here is intended as a medical or therapeutic claim.
