Kyanite, virtues and benefits

Properties of kyanite

Kyanite or kyanite is also called kyanite. Its name was given to it by Abraham Gottlob Werner in 1789. It comes from the Greek "kuanos" or "blue". Kyanite is colorless and owes its famous blue color to the presence of chromium. Its color then varies from blue to purple, passing through green, yellow, pink, white, brown and gray. The main deposits of are located in Brazil, Nepal, but also in Austria, Kenya, Myanmar, Zimbabwe.

Kyanite is the stone of "letting go". It is a stone of intuition and self-acceptance. Soothing for buried anxieties and fears, kyanite promotes deep and restorative sleep for both mind and body.

Anecdote

Kyanite is a stone sensitive to shocks and makes it a little stone used in jewelry. Yet some Asian cultures make jewelry in kyanite, for its virtues. The result is spectacular considering the aesthetics of the stone.

Maintenance of your gemstones

Kyanite or cyanite has a hardness of 4 to 5 on the faces of the prism and 6 to 7 transversely. It is a note on 10, 10 being the hardest stone, the diamond. It is a semi-precious stone that is relatively fragile and sensitive to shocks.

To maintain your kyanite stones just wash them with clear water. Professional ultrasonic cleaning of jewelery is not recommended for this delicate semi-precious stone.
