Kunzite - The Evening Gemstone
Kunzite radiates pure Parisian chic, revealing delicate raspberry pinks, frosty lilacs, cool lavenders and hot fuchsia under the warm glow of incandescent light. Keep out of direct sunlight, or harsh fluorescent light, since this might diminish the colour over time!
Legends & Lore
Aside from their obvious physical beauty, pink gemstones possess potent metaphysical properties. Alternative healers use a multitude of pink gems in conjunction with the “Heart Chakra”. The 4th of 7 energy points that run the course of the human body, the “Heart Chakra” is believed to carry the emotional sensibilities of love and compassion
Just the Facts
Kunzite, discovered in California in 1902, was named after Tiffany’s chief gemologist, G.F. Kunz
Kunz described this fairly robust pastel pink gemstone as having two distinct properties “Phosphorescence” where Kunzite, in this respect similar to diamonds, is observed to glow in a darkened room after it has been exposed to the sun’s ultra-violet rays and “Pleochroism”, showing two different colors when viewed from different directions
Kunzite is mined in Afghanistan, Brazil, Burma, Canada, Madagascar, Mexico, Pakistan, Russia, Sweden and the United States
