9.18 cts Kunzite

Kunzite is celebrated for its exceptional clarity, delicate light-pink hue, and remarkable brilliance — qualities that make it a compelling centrepiece in fine jewellery. Its natural pleochroism means it can display varying intensities of pink and lilac depending on the angle of light, lending every piece a living, ever-changing beauty. With a Mohs hardness of 6 to 7, it is best suited for pendants, earrings, and rings worn with mindful care, where its luminous colour can truly be appreciated.

The graceful, elongated silhouette of a pear cut is one of the most versatile and flattering shapes in fine jewellery. This Kunzite pairs beautifully with rose gold for a warm, romantic aesthetic, or with white gold and platinum for a cooler, more contemporary look. It is particularly striking as a pendant or a statement ring centrepiece, where the pointed tip and rounded belly of the pear shape can be showcased to full effect.

Kunzite is a gem of refined sensibility and rewards gentle stewardship. With a Mohs hardness of 6 to 7, it is best kept away from harder gemstones and abrasive surfaces to prevent scratching. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or intense heat, as this may gradually affect its delicate colour. Clean with lukewarm water and a soft cloth, and store individually in a lined jewellery pouch or box. Ultrasonic and steam cleaners are not recommended for this stone.

Absolutely. At 9.18 carats, this Kunzite is a notably substantial specimen — a size that elevates it well beyond the everyday and into the realm of collector-grade and bespoke jewellery commissions. Its generous measurements of approximately 15 x 10.7 mm provide ample presence for a custom-designed ring, brooch, or pendant. Yala Gems is pleased to assist clients in Singapore with bespoke setting consultations to ensure this stone is honoured in a piece as singular as the gem itself.
