Sugilite, or luvulite, is a pink-purple stone with white, black, and sometimes yellow inclusions or veins. The sugilite gem was discovered by Ken-ichi Sugi on Iwagi Islet, Japan, in 1944. Since then, it has been discovered in Canada, South Africa, Italy, Australia, and India. Flower sugilite is a variety of lepidolite, rather than sugilite, and is a natural purple stone.
