Unakite is a beautiful metamorphic rock made up of pink orthoclase feldspar, green epidote, and quartz. Its distinct green and pink mottled patterns create a one-of-a-kind look that stands out. Valued for its captivating colors and design, Unakite is the perfect choice for jewelry and decorative pieces that make a lasting impression.
Unakite is formed through the metamorphism of granite, during which plagioclase feldspar in the granite is altered into orthoclase feldspar and epidote. This transformation occurs deep within the Earth’s crust under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions. The combination of these minerals produces Unakite’s characteristic pink and green coloration, giving the stone its unique and visually appealing appearance.
