Kunzite

Kunzite is the pink gem variety of Spodumene discovered in 1902, and was named after the Tiffany & Co mineralogist George Kunz. The pink colouring comes from the presence of Manganese in the crystal, and it is found in a variety of lilac to deep pink shades, though it will fade in the sun.

Kunzite is famously known as the Women's Stone, as it aids mothers in taking care of their children, sometimes attributed to helping restless children to sleep peacefully. The crystal is associated with attracting peace and harmony, and it can help individuals to focus when needed. Kunzite also has the ability to help boost confidence in social situations, making it an excellent crystal for those who may struggle with social anxiety.
