Read on to discover this gemstone’s story.<br /><br />Not surprisingly, the more attractive a gem’s colour, the higher the value. For typically pastel gemstones like Kunzite, intense colours are an uncommon geological rarity. The vivid highly saturated colours of Patroke Kunzite are extremely unusual and highly prized, making it some of the world’s finest Kunzite.<br /><br />While Afghanistan is a major world supplier of Kunzite, well-cut, high clarity examples with saturated colours are incredibly scarce, but highly sought after. Named for its mine, Patroke Kunzite (pronounced: Pa-Tro-Kee) hails from the Kunar Valley in Afghanistan’s Kunar Province. With intense colours making it the exception rather than rule, Patroke Kunzite is a remarkable and incredibly rare gift from nature. The renowned Brazilian gem hunter and lapidary, Tony Diniz is the person responsible for first sourcing Patroke Kunzite while on adventures in Afghanistan’s Kunar Valley in 2007. Representing less than one percent of total mine output, the selection of Patroke Kunzite jewellery is extremely limited due to its rarity - only approximately 150 pieces are available.<br /><br />Each piece of fine jewellery featuring Patroke Kunzite comes with an ownership booklet that guarantees its authenticity. A modified version on this booklet is available online as an e-zine at <a href="http://www.rocksandco.com">www.rocksandco.com</a>, simply click on the banner above.<br /><br />You can shop online with Rocks & Co. at <a href="http://www.rocksandco.com">www.rocksandco.com</a> or watch them live on Sky channel 642 from 8am to 2am.
