Kunzite is the best known variety of the mineral spodumene. It’s named after famed gemologist George Frederick Kunz, who was the first to identify it as a unique variety of spodumene.
Kunzite gets its delicate color from trace amounts of manganese. This superb specimen is from the gem pegmatites of Nooristan, Afghanistan. It is a lovely lilac pink and is sharply crystallized and partially gemmy.
Kunzite is a stone deeply connected to the heart and love. A joyful stone, kunzite opens and connects the heart with the mind, encouraging communion between the two. While wearing kunzite, it is thought you are better able to experience and reciprocate love.
I ordered a Myanmar ruby of 1.85 ct. and a 1.2 ct. garnet. They processed my order the same day and the package showed up at home only two business days later. Beautiful gems, beautifully presented and excellent service. The website is a joy to peruse. I immediately ordered half a dozen more for a birthstone project. The best source i found for stones in Canada. Thanks Laura & Jean!
Très belle pièce. Je commence à collectionner les météorites et cette pièce est peu dispendieuse et va enrichir ma collection. Expédition rapide et excellente communication avec les gens de Canagem. AAA+++
It wasn't until I got a new UV light that I was able to see the amazing colour of this flourite. The specimen is very attractive in natural light, and crazy beautiful under 254nm UV! I love it!
