Kyanite – The Gemstone in Deep Denim Blue
Kyanite, named after the Greek term kynos (dark blue), stands out for its vibrant blue color, reminiscent of denim. In Germany, it is also known as disthene (“two hardnesses”), as it has different hardness levels along its length and width. The kyanite used by Bernd Wolf comes from Brazil in excellent quality and is a rare gem. This gemstone is found worldwide in countries such as India, Nepal, Kenya, and the USA, and is known for its varied shades of blue.
Its unique color palette, ranging from deep blue to light blue and white-blue, along with its slight transparency, makes kyanite a remarkable gemstone that shines as an eye-catcher in any piece of jewelry.
Kyanite is said to have a harmonizing effect: it is believed to lift the spirit, enhance communication, and strengthen self-confidence. Many value it for its potential to support intuitive and self-directed actions.
