Kunzite Gemstone ValueKunzite, a stunning pink to violet gemstone, is known for its captivating color and remarkable brilliance.

In this article, we will explore what contributes to the value of Kunzite, offering insight into how collectors and jewelry enthusiasts assess its worth. Kunzite is actually a very affordable gemstone, even in large sizes. Kunzite gems of over 10 carats are quite common, and we often see pieces weighing over 20 carats. Occasionally we'll even see kunzite gems that weigh over 40 carats. Unlike sapphire or ruby, the price per carat for kunzite tends to remain fairly constant as the stones get larger. ![]() Rare, Deep Pink Kunzite
Prices of kunzite gemstones depend on color, clarity, cut and size. Most kunzite is light-pink to lavender, but more saturated pinks are sometimes found and can command high prices. The rarest color of kunzite is a vivid and intense pink, often referred to as "bubblegum pink." This highly sought-after hue is prized for its exceptional beauty and scarcity in the gemstone market. Since kunzite tends to have very good clarity, clean specimens do not usually carry a higher price. Large, well-cut pieces can definitely be more expensive, but the per carat price of kunzite tends to increase slowly with size when compared with sapphire or ruby. Fine kunzite in smaller sizes - under 5 carats - often sells for about $10.00 a carat, while stones over 10 carats may sell for $15 to $20 per carat. ![]() Kunzite from Afghanistan
Most of the current supply of kunzite is found in Afghanistan and Pakistan. However, kunzite was first discovered in the USA and was named in honor of George F. Kunz, the legendary American mineralogist and buyer for Tiffany & Co,, who first described the gem in 1902.
