More than just a love story - The rose has obvious connections to love, romance and purity, but it is also associated with the keeping of secrets. The Latin word ‘sub-rosa’, translates literally as ‘under the rose’ and means ‘something told in secret’. From Ancient Rome to the Middle Ages, using a rose to decorate a meeting room denoted that matters discussed within were strictly confidential.

The perfect partner for Rose Quartz – Our rose scented candle and its rose quartz gemstone are a power couple, brought together by their associations with love and matters of the heart. However, if you combine the rose’s association with keeping secrets with the empathy, reconciliation and forgiveness connected with rose quartz you also have some of the finest qualities to celebrate in some of your favourite people!
