What is lavender quartz?
Lavender quartz, sold in China as 紫玉晶 ("purple jade crystal"), is a pale, milky lilac quartz, a softer cousin of amethyst. Its gentle color comes from the same tiny traces that color amethyst, spread thinly through a slightly cloudy quartz, which gives each bead a soft, jade-like glow instead of a sharp sparkle.
Traditional meaning and Healing Energy
In crystal tradition, lavender quartz's soft lilac is linked with the crown and third eye chakras, like amethyst. It's known as a guardian stone of love and a stone of spirituality and wisdom, and it stands for a steady, even mood and kind, warm relationships with the people around you.

How to tell if it is real
Hold a bead to daylight: natural pieces look milky soft lilac with gentle zoning, not a flat candy purple. Round bubbles point to glass. Our strand ships with real studio photos of the exact piece. Prefer clearer, deeper violet? See our amethyst guide.
Care
Long strong sun can slowly fade purple quartz. Cleanse with moonlight or sound, wipe with a soft dry cloth, and store it on its own in its pouch. Take it off before showering, swimming, exercising or sleeping to protect the cord and vintage-style accents. More in how to cleanse a crystal bracelet.
