Morphology

rose + quartz

The meaning is directly compositional: 'rose' (a pink hue) + 'quartz' (a mineral) yields a pale pink variety of quartz and by extension a color name. This follows a common noun+modifier pattern found across languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents can reliably infer the MWE's meaning.

Etymology

Rose quartz as a color name comes from the gemstone's pale pink tone. So designers and brands call a soft pink shade 'rose quartz' to show that rosy, gentle color.
