Buyer's guide
Kunzite
Kunzite is the pink to violet variety of spodumene. Its soft color suits a pendant or earrings, with care around knocks and strong light.
Before the cut
From rough stone to custom jewelry
Kunzite rough holds a soft pink light that deepens once it is cut. We craft delicate settings that keep that gentle color safe. Tell us if kunzite caught your eye and we will start your design.
What to look for
Color
Stronger pink to violet is prized. Color changes with viewing angle, so the cutter chooses the best direction.
Clarity
Most fine faceted stones are eye clean. Check for fractures that could affect wear.
Cut
Deep cutting can strengthen pale color. Kunzite cleaves easily, so cutting and setting need care.
Care
Prolonged heat or strong light can fade some stones. Store away from sunlight and avoid steam or ultrasound.
