A market-wide average across qualities and sizes. Your stone's value depends on carat, color, clarity, cut, treatment, and origin.
Kunzite is the pink to lilac variety of spodumene, a lithium aluminum inosilicate. It is strongly pleochroic, often showing deeper color along one crystallographic axis and paler tones along others. With Mohs hardness 6.5–7 and perfect cleavage in two directions, it is relatively brittle and must be handled carefully during cutting, setting and wear. Its delicate pastel colors and large crystal sizes make it popular for showy gems and designer pieces.
