Lavender Kunzite Polished

This Kunzite Crystal is A+ grade with great clarity and colour. It has a sweet rainbow flashing at me as I write this. This is the purple/pink variety of spodumene. It is of good colour and clarity like this is hard to get hence it’s pricey. Here is the video.

This crystal is an amazing “growing your heart’s energy” crystal. It will give you a surge of confidence to bond with people, especially new friends and colleagues. It will restore your trust in yourself and others because you become compassionate to yourself and others for the creation for the bad experiences.

This crystal gets its beautiful lilac-pink colours from the presence of manganese in the stone. Unfortunately it will fade over time in the sun but not its healing help so just bring them out when working quietly with the energies at home.
