Desert Rose

Desert rose is the colloquial name given to rose-like formations of crystal clusters of gypsum or baryte which include abundant sand grains. Found in dry desert regions, each one is said to house a unique spirit guardian. They have traditionally been used as talismans for protection, overcoming phobias and to help boost self-confidence. Particularly helpful for shy or timid children and teens to help them uncover and confidently express their talents. Despite its rose petal like softness, Desert Rose is a stone that will help you stand your ground and confront any hardship.
