*What are "ROSE ROCKS"?
Barite rosettes (aka Rose Rocks) are unique geological formations that are found in certain areas of central Oklahoma. They are made up of barite crystals that have formed into a rosette shape, creating a distinct and beautiful appearance. The process of formation of these rocks is quite rare and involves the right combination of weathering, groundwater, and minerals. The sandy soil in the region is thought to provide the perfect conditions for the growth of these crystals. While Barite Roses can be found in a few other parts of the world, the ones found in central Oklahoma are considered the most rose-like and most beautiful. The combination of their unique shape, increasing rarity, spiritual energies, and cultural significance makes them highly sought after by collectors, rockhounds, crystal healers, and researchers alike.

Care instructions
Barite Rose Rocks are moderately low on the Mohs scale (hardness level), and can be easily damaged if stored with other rocks (including other Rose Rocks). Store your roses individually with padding or bubble wrap to keep them safe.
And, to avoid fading, display them out of direct sunlight for extended periods of time.
Where do you get your Rose Rocks?
My Native American husband's family owns land in Oklahoma county, and the Garber Sandstone Formation (where rose rocks are formed) runs right through the area. Given full permission (and extremely thankful), I collect the roses from their land!
Gift wrapping and packaging
In a world that's accustomed to e-commerce and dealing with packages all the time, I still believe that a package should be exciting, special, and fun. Every order is beautifully packaged with care - a service that I offer for free. Nature provides most of my products, keeping my overhead costs low, and I don't believe in charging more than what's fair. Packaging can vary, but here's a typical example: Your item is placed in its own gift box/bag before it goes into the shipping box, nestled in crinkle paper and gift tissue. I place a small envelope that contains a Rose Rock info card and my business card on top, then the box is sealed and on its way to you! I'd be happy to add a special touch, like a gift tag or card, just let me know! :)

Although Mother Nature did the crafting work, it takes a curator's eye to pick such exquisite specimens. Beautiful job. Highly recommend.
