Kyanite is a gemstone quality aluminum silicate sometimes referred to as
disthene, rhaeticite or cyanite. Its name is derived from the Greek word
'kuanos' or 'kyanos', which means 'deep blue', alluding to its typical blue
color. However, in addition to blue, kyanite can also be colorless, white,
gray, green, orange or yellow. With kyanite, color is typically not consistent
throughout. In fact, most stones exhibit areas of light to dark color zones,
along with white streaks or blotches. Kyanite is a polymorph of both andalusite
and sillimanite. Polymorph gemstones share similar chemical compositions, but
they exhibit different crystal structures. Kyanite forms as triclinic crystals,
while andalusite and sillimanite are both orthorhombic.
