Roses of Paphos
In ancient lore, it was upon the shores of Paphos, Cyprus, that Aphrodite first rose from the sea’s white foam, cradled by the waves and crowned in sea-kissed petals. From that sacred place, roses are said to have bloomed in her footsteps, their blush touched by the goddess’s breath. These crystal roses honor that birthplace of love’s divinity—where sea met sky, and beauty itself was born.
Hand-carved from crystal and shaped into tender rose blooms, Roses of Paphos captures the gentle essence of love, beauty, and devotion. Each piece is unique, polished to a soft gleam, and made to be cherished, or placed upon your altar, vanity, or bedside as a symbol of divine affection. Whether gifted to a beloved or kept close to your heart, these crystal roses whisper the quiet language of Aphrodite, of tenderness, adoration, and timeless grace.
