Pink Gemstone FAQs
Gemstone Comparison & Identification
Is pink tourmaline the same as pink sapphire?
- No. Tourmaline is a separate mineral from sapphire (corundum). Pink sapphires are harder (Mohs 9) and brighter; tourmaline is more affordable and available in a wider range of shades. Browse Sapphire Jewelry.
What stones look like pink diamonds?
What is the difference between pink opal and white opal?

What are good ways to recognize real kunzite?
- Kunzite is light pink to violet, often pleochroic, and should show clarity and brilliance. SuperJeweler ensures authenticity and quality through expert stone selection. Explore Pink Gemstone Jewelry.
Gemstone Science & Composition
How does titanium make rose quartz pink?
- Trace elements like titanium, iron, or manganese give rose quartz its pink hue. Unlike other gemstones, its color is often hazy or translucent rather than crystal-clear. Find Rose Quartz Jewelry at SuperJeweler.
What is the 'missing ingredient' in pink diamonds?
- It’s not a chemical element—it’s a distortion in the diamond’s crystal lattice that bends light, producing a pink tone. This makes them both rare and mesmerizing. Shop Diamond Jewelry and Lab Grown Diamond Jewelry.
Rarity, Value & Buying Tips
Is pink quartz valuable?

How does kunzite compare to other pink gems in value?
- Kunzite is more affordable than pink sapphire or pink diamond, but more valuable than rose quartz. Its appeal is its gentle color and large crystal sizes. Shop Pink Gemstone Jewelry.
