Pink Kunzite is a beautiful, transparent to translucent gemstone belonging to the spodumene mineral family. Its captivating pink to violet hues result from traces of manganese in its chemical composition. This gemstone is highly valued for its vibrant color, brilliance, and strong pleochroism, meaning it can display different shades when viewed from different angles.
Key Features:
• Color: Pale to vivid pink, sometimes with violet undertones.
• Clarity: Typically very clear, though inclusions can be present in some specimens.
• Hardness: 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale, making it suitable for occasional wear.
• Luster: Glassy (vitreous).
• Origin: Commonly found in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Brazil, and Madagascar.
Symbolism and Uses:
Pink Kunzite is often associated with emotional healing, love, and calming energy. It is thought to open the heart chakra and encourage compassion. Due to its delicate coloring and brilliance, it’s a popular choice for fine jewelry such as pendants, rings, and earrings.
Care Tips:
Kunzite can fade when exposed to prolonged sunlight, so it should be stored away from direct light. Clean it gently with warm water and mild soap, avoiding ultrasonic or steam cleaners.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.
When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.
