Blue kyanite is a natural stone that belongs to the silicate group. It comes from metamorphic rocks (rocks transformed during changes in temperature and/or pressure). This mineral can have various names. They depend on the mineralogists who studied it.

The term kyanite comes from Abraham Gottlob Werner (1750 - 1817), mineralogist and geologist who named it thus in 1789. This stone can be called kyanite or kyanite, coming from the Greek “kuanos” which means “blue shine” or “blue deep".

On the other hand, later in 1801, the French mineralogist René-Just Haüy (1743 - 1822) gave it the name kyanite, explaining it by “di”, meaning two and “destenos” meaning force. This name refers to the different electrical properties of the stone, depending on the direction of the crystal.

The stone has inherited other names such as sapare, blue talc, kyanite zeolite, etc. It appears in the form of lamellar or tabular prismatic crystals. Sometimes these crystals look like mica because they follow the folds of the rock. It has a hardness of between 4 and 7 on the Mohs scale.

Typically, it has traces of metals such as chromium, magnesium, calcium and iron. It can be transparent to translucent, have a glassy or pearly appearance.

Kyanite can have several colors, including blue. In fact, it has such an intense blue color that after being polished, it resembles a sapphire. Thus, it was not until the twentieth century that it would be recognized as a mineral in its own right.

This confusion is at the origin of the difficulties in tracing the exact history of this stone. However, it is said that this stone served as a compass during Antiquity. The kyanite was then attached to a hair of the travelers. It worked like the needle of a compass. Its electrical qualities made it possible to guide oneself using the Earth's electromagnetic field, which provides a reliable means of orientation and protects against solar radiation. Thus, great travelers wore kyanite when they went to discover unknown lands.

Today, kyanite is relatively little used in jewelry due to its fragility. However, it remains a great alternative to sapphire, the latter having a much higher price. In jewelry, we mainly make earrings or pendants. Be careful not to subject it to shock, because this stone remains fragile.

On the other hand, collectors love this gem in the form of a cabochon or in the form of rectangular crystals. Kyanite is also found in industry and in the manufacture of ceramics.

The main deposits are in India, Brazil, Canada, China, etc.
