Why kyanite in quartz matrix?

Kyanite in matrix is particularly prized by both mineral collectors and those seeking natural decorative pieces with visual impact. Its most notable properties:

• Characteristic blue colour, which varies in intensity depending on the angle of light
• Variable hardness: kyanite is one of the few minerals with different hardness depending on the axis (4.5 along the length, 6.5 across)
• Visual contrast with the white quartz matrix, which enhances the blue crystals
• Certified origin: Minas Gerais, Brazil, a world reference for collector minerals
• Suitable both as a mineralogical specimen and as a piece of natural interior decoration
