Kunzite Gemstones

Kunzite is a beautiful delicate pink colored ornamental stone with a hint of violet. This gem is the youngest in the spodumen family. This stone displays pleochroism which means depending on the angle the stone is viewed one can find multiple colors in the same stone. This stone was first discovered in California by a gemologist named George Frederick Kunz in 1902 and thereby named after him as Kunzite.

Because of its color pink which is symbolic of love, romance and marriage kunzite gemstone jewelry is an ideal gift to be given to a loved one signifying eternal love. Kunzite pendants are used as charms and are believed to bring in good luck and peace of mind. It is also believed to be a healing stone which awakens the heart center and said to heal broken hearts and reduce stress and depression. It is also said to liberate one from anger, fear and anxiety. This is an excellent gemstone for those suffering from strain or exam nerves. This stone is used for the maintenance and treatment of heart, circular system and lungs.

However, the Kunzite gemstone may fade in color when exposed to strong light or heat. So it is advised not to wear this gem while sunbathing or going to high temperature areas. This gem has the reputation of a night gem or evening wear. This is a very fragile gem and needs to be handled with care. It is better to get this stone by a professional jeweler incase needed. Kunzite gems are found in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Madagascar, Brazil, Myanmar and the USA.

A very good hub. I think you should add a line of disclaimer / caution (just like drug companies do) with the usage of a malafic stone like Blue Sapphire. Just kidding.
