Sugilite Is the Rich-Looking Color Trend That'll Take Over in 2025

You’ve probably heard of amethyst—it’s the February birthstone—and maybe even tanzanite, a rarer purple gemstone. But what about sugilite?

This slightly obscure stone was first discovered in the 1940s in Japan, and since then, has has been used in decorative objects, beads, and other types of jewelry. Known for its striking hue, the color has a Kate Middleton-approved regal vibe. Not only does it look luxurious, it also commands attention. And, we’re betting it’s about to be the shade of the season and gain popularity well into the New Year.
