About Kyanite
Blue Kyanite gemstones are very rare and popular given its unique properties and similarity to Sapphire. Colours range from clear to blue to green and teal.
Most of the Kyanite used by gemstone collectors for high-quality jewelry is blue in color. The gemstones are considered rare for many reasons one of which is the fact that they are pleochroic which means the color will change depending on the direction from which the gemstone is viewed.
Kyanite is rare primarily being found in the Nepal region and is notoriously hard to get to at low altitudes. There are only a few areas to find this gem and fewer when searching for high grade gem quality, and none of these places are easy to get to let alone set up mining operations. This makes the gem an excellent choice for future investment as current mines become depleted.
More On Appraisal Certificates
Appraisal Certificates are done from accredited appraisers and represent the retail insurance replacement value for an item. While many companies do appraisals (such as jewelry stores), it is important to receive an appraisal by a group that does not involve themselves in the buying or selling of Gems or jewelry pieces as to avoid any conflict of interest. We typically use AGL, GS Labs (Gemscan), IGA, Karaman, Gemlab, Jewelscan, and other accredited appraisal companies (some with Global Offices) for the Jewelry industry.
An appraisal will assign a monetary value to a Gem or piece of jewelry and is ultimately subjective based on the appraiser's criteria for grading and experience. For this reason, only accredited and experienced appraisers are used to evaluate stones. An appraisal is not an indication of your buying power, that depends on your ability to "wheel and deal" as well as your source of supply and ability to buy in parcel lots or in bulk.
