Kunzite is the pink to lilac form of the mineral Spodumene. It forms in prismatic crystals with visible vertical striations. These striations make cutting and polishing a difficult task unless done by an expert.
These particular beads have been cut and polished using a distinct style of faceting called, Triangle Faceting. This produces beautiful Triangular shaped facets on the beads, which in turn cause a greater reflection of light due to the larger surface area of the facets. Simply Amazing!
