Kunzite is a beautiful pink to violet-lavender variety of the mineral spodumene. It was first discovered in the early 20th century and is named after the gemologist George Frederick Kunz, who was the first to identify it. Kunzite has a distinct pleochroism, meaning it can display different colors depending on the angle of light. When viewed from one angle, it might appear pink, while from another, it may show a violet or purple hue.

The stone is often used in jewelry due to its vibrant colors and attractive clarity. Kunzite is also known for its metaphysical properties, including its association with love, emotional healing, and spiritual growth. It is believed to encourage calm, inner peace, and self-expression, making it a popular choice for those looking to enhance emotional balance.

However, Kunzite is relatively soft (about 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale of hardness) and can be prone to damage if not handled carefully. It’s also sensitive to prolonged exposure to sunlight, as this can cause its color to fade over time.
