Unakite: Its Background, Significance, Applications, and Characteristics

Unakite stones are moss-like, spotted, and remarkably beautiful. Each stone has a unique design. The most common colors seen in unakite stones are orangey-red, green, olive green, and pink tints. Colorless to milky quartz, green epidote, and pink orthoclase make up the pink and green metamorphic rock known as unakite. Sterling silver jewelry looks stunning with these stones. The popularity of Unakite as a lapidary gemstone can be attributed to these colors. Plagioclase in granite transforms into epidote when hydrothermal fluids modify it. Unakite is the end product of this.
