Pink Kunzite - 18.51 ct - International Gemological Institute (IGI)

Kunzite is a pink to lilac variety of the mineral spodumene, appreciated for its delicate pastel color and strong pleochroism, meaning it shows different colors when viewed from different angles. It is primarily found in Afghanistan, Brazil, and Madagascar. Kunzite is known for its relatively large crystal size, making it ideal for carving and large jewelry pieces. The sizeable 18.51 carat pink kunzite certified by the International Gemological Institute (IGI) verifies its color and quality attributes. While visually striking, kunzite should be worn with care as it can fade with prolonged exposure to strong light. Its gentle pink tones and crystal transparency have made it a popular choice in emotional and aesthetic jewelry designs.
