The mystical properties attached to rose quartz make this special heart-shaped gift from my daughter-in-law even more special. Historically, it is a symbol of love and beauty. I keep it on my desk and periodically run my fingers over its cool smoothness when I think of her.

A gift from Lew, my pink pen/pencil set has held up well under many years of use, abuse (unintentional) and non-use. Its pretty tapestry holder keeps it nicely protected.
