It is found worldwide, with significant deposits in Myanmar, Cambodia, Kenya, Nepal, Tibet, Brazil, Switzerland, Russia, and certain states in America.

Its colors look gorgeous when it is cut into a cabochon shape.

Clarity and cut of the gemstone

Its clarity ranges from transparent to translucent. It is rarely opaque. It has flaws and is rarely flawless. It has varying shades of color and also some natural inclusions.

To highlight its shine and color, it is cut into cabochons. It is very rarely faceted into other gemstone shapes. Kyanite has perfect cleavage, and cutters take care of this fact while cutting the gemstone. It is anisotropic in nature which means it has a dual Mohs hardness that depends on the angle the pressure comes from. Its vertical hardness ranges from 4.5 to 5.5; its horizontal hardness ranges from 6 to 7. 

It is pleochroic, which means the color will change when viewed from different angles. When the crystal is cut in free form, it creates a bohemian look in the jewelry and is always in demand.
