Kyanite jewelry: double hardness in bright blue
Marco Schreier Mineralienhandlung GmbH offers you jewelry with faceted Kyanite from Nepal at wholesale prices - rings, pendants and earrings, set in 925 silver.
Jewelry with Kyanite in various designs We stock jewelry with blue Kyanite from Nepal: rings with faceted or cabochon-cut stones, pendants in various sizes, finished necklaces with Kyanite beads and earrings as pendants or studs. All pieces are set in 925 silver, some are also gold-plated or rhodiniert. The characteristic blue color and silky sheen make Kyanite an attractive gemstone. Some specimens show slight streaking or zoning, which is caused by different growth phases. The settings range from simple designs to more elaborate silver work that sets off the bright blue.
The name Kyanite comes from the Greek "dis" (two) and "sthenos" (strength) - meaning "twofold strength, twofold hardness". The mineral was named after the French mineralogist René-Just Haüy in 1801, who used the name to refer to the electrical properties and the different scratch hardness in different directions. Kyanite, as the blue mineral is also called and was named by Abraham Gottlob Werner as early as 1789, has its origin in the Greek "kyanos" (blue) and describes the predominant color of the mineral.
Special geological feature: varying hardness Kyanite is mineralogically unusual: its hardness varies considerably depending on the crystal direction. Along the crystal axis, the Mohs hardness is only 4.5 to 5, but across it it is 6.5 to 7. This anisotropy of hardness makes the mineral challenging for cutters - it must be worked in the right direction to achieve optimum results. Kyanite Occurs during the metamorphosis of clayey sediments under high pressure - typically in Gneiss and mica schist. The mineral is an index mineral for certain metamorphic conditions and helps geologists to reconstruct the formation history of rocks. The blue color is caused by traces of iron and titanium. Kyanite from Nepal shows particularly bright, intense shades of blue - from light cornflower blue to deep sapphire blue.
Mineralogical significance and use In addition to its use in jewelry, Kyanite also has industrial significance. Due to its high temperature resistance, it is used in the ceramics industry and for refractory materials. This practical application demonstrates the special physical properties of the mineral. The various names - Kyanite, Kyanite, Zyanite, Zianite, Kianite or Cyanite - bear witness to its long mineralogical history. Since its first description by Werner in 1789 and its naming by Haüy in 1801, the mineral has fascinated scientists and collectors alike.

The bright shades of blue from Nepal are characteristic and have a noble appearance. The scientific history - from its name to its significance as an index mineral - lends the stone specialist depth.
