Kunzite Tumbled Stone from Africa #SK1283

Kunzite is a delicate pink-to-lilac mineral, a variety of spodumene, often displaying a hint of violet. This tumbled stone has been smoothed and polished to reveal its inherent beauty and vitreous luster. The cherished pink and lilac tones are due to trace amounts of manganese in its structure. Its hardness rates 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale, though care should be taken due to its cleavage.
