Kunzite was discovered in California around 1902 and was named in honour of George Frederick Kunz, the gemmologist credited with its identification. Mr. Kunz is a legendary figure in the world of gem, his knowledge saw him employed as the resident ‘gem expert’ at that iconic jeweller, Tiffany & Co., becoming their vice president by the age of 23.

Kunzite is predominately mined in Afghanistan, Brazil, Madagascar and Pakistan, although the original deposits in California occasionally still produce the odd gem quality piece.

Kunzite is a beautiful crystal, pure in energy and joyful in nature. In palest pink to light violet hues, it is a Stone of Emotion, opening and connecting the heart to the mind and stimulating a healing communion between the two. Kunzite encourages one to release walls built around the heart for protection, and to be receptive to the experience of unconditional and abundant love.
