Bloodstone has traditionally been associated with courage, strength, protection and resilience. Carved into a rose, it becomes an interesting combination: something beautiful and delicate made from a stone whose reputation is decidedly tougher.
At approximately 1.25", this is a small carving made for tucking into the places where you actually want a little extra support. Keep it on your altar, beside your tarot cards, on your desk or carry it with you when you're heading into something that requires courage.
The rose itself carries symbolism of love, devotion, transformation and beauty that survives its thorns. Paired with bloodstone, I particularly like it as a reminder that softness and strength aren't opposites.
