21.46 Ct. Kunzite from Brazil

This extraordinary, one of a kind 21.46 carat, transparent pink kunzite, measuring 20.22 by 15.19 by 10.86 millimeters, is a rare find reserved for discerning collectors who understand the true value of provenance, proportion, and provenance. Offered exclusively through The Natural Gemstone Company, this oval kunzite carries a mixed brilliant cut that has been masterfully executed to emphasize scintillation and light return. Evaluated as eye clean at normal viewing distance, with a medium light color intensity and an excellent polish, the gem displays a pure, gently blushing pink that reads as both elegant and modern. Originating from Brazil and enhanced by a careful heat treatment to stabilize and open the hue, this kunzite has been prepared with longevity and presentation in mind, while remaining an individual expression of nature and skilled craftsmanship.

The exceptional sparkle of this kunzite is a product of both its intrinsic crystal structure and the considered artistry of its cutting. Kunzite is a gem-quality variety of the mineral spodumene, with a monoclinic crystal lattice that produces distinct optical behaviors, including notable pleochroism, which allows subtly different tones to emerge as the stone is turned. Those structural characteristics, combined with refractive indices and modest birefringence, create an environment where precisely placed facets can coax maximum life from the material. The mixed brilliant cut used on this oval combines a faceted crown that captures light and a carefully graduated pavilion that redirects it back through the table in numerous flashes. Each facet acts like a micro-mirror, creating crisp flashes and a lively play of light that contrasts with the soft, romantic color. The deep, well-balanced proportions of this 20 by 15 millimeter gem allow light to traverse the interior uninterrupted, the eye clean clarity permitting a purely luminous performance, while the excellent polish gives each facet razor-sharp edges that translate into vivid scintillation and a silky surface that instantly reads quality at a glance.

Because large, well-cut kunzite of this quality is seldom available, this gemstone represents a distinct opportunity to own a piece that feels both personal and aristocratic. The combination of size, impeccable cut, and Brazilian origin marks it as a collector grade stone that will serve as the singular centerpiece for a handmade setting, whether envisioned as a sculptural cocktail ring, an understated heirloom pendant, or a bespoke high jewelry commission. The heat treatment applied is a responsible, common enhancement that stabilizes and elevates the pink hue while maintaining the stone’s natural character, and our gemological evaluation at eye level confirms its clarity and presentation. As with all kunzite, we recommend thoughtful care, avoiding prolonged direct sunlight and extreme heat to preserve the intensity of the color over generations. At The Natural Gemstone Company we curate only a handful of such remarkable stones, ensuring that when you choose this pink kunzite you are joining an exclusive group of owners who possess a truly exceptional natural marvel, a gem that announces its rarity through both its visual presence and its story.
