Kunzite, a gemstone of delicate pink to violet hues, is a captivating variety of the mineral Spodumene. Named after renowned gemologist George Frederick Kunz, this gem is prized for its soft, ethereal color, which is attributed to trace amounts of manganese. While often celebrated for its clarity and brilliance, Kunzite is notably sensitive to sunlight, which can cause its color to fade over time. Therefore, it is often referred to as an "evening stone." With a Mohs hardness ranging from 6.5 to 7, Kunzite requires gentle care and is best suited for jewelry that avoids harsh impacts. Its distinct cleavage also poses a challenge for gem cutters, requiring expert skill to maximize its beauty.
