Kunzite is the pink to violet variety of the mineral spodumene. It gets its color from trace amounts of manganese and rates 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs hardness scale.
Kunzite deposits are found in Afghanistan, Brazil, Madagascar, and California. Afghan kunzite often shows the most saturated pink coloration.
Kunzite works well for earrings and pendants worn daily. Rings should be worn with care since the stone can chip along cleavage planes if struck.
