Kunzite pendants pair this rare pink gemstone with solid .925 sterling silver. Named after gemologist George Frederick Kunz in 1902, kunzite forms in granite pegmatites, with notable deposits in Afghanistan, Brazil, and Madagascar. Its pale pink to violet color comes from trace manganese. With a Mohs hardness of 6.5–7, kunzite works well in pendant settings where the stone faces less impact than in rings. Our collection includes 28,529 pieces, priced from $16 to $11,402.

Kunzite is a pink variety of the mineral spodumene, colored by trace amounts of manganese. Major sources include Afghanistan, Brazil, Madagascar, and parts of California.
Kunzite rates 6.5–7 on the Mohs hardness scale, making pendants a good choice since they receive less direct impact than rings. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and sudden temperature changes.
Prolonged exposure to strong UV light can cause kunzite to lose some color intensity. Store your kunzite pendant in a jewelry box or pouch when not wearing it.
