Andalusite

Fast Facts

Depending on the viewing direction, andalusite can appear olive green, rich reddish brown, or grayish green.

Unlike alexandrite, andalusite color changes are pleochroic and based on viewing angle - not lighting.

Andalusites are often cut so that the table is green with red or orange on the edges.

Named after the Spanish city Andalusia, andalusite was first discovered in Spain.

Andalusite is a naturally occurring pleochroic gemstone. On Mohs’ scale of hardness, andalusite is 7.5. It has a vitreous or matte luster, and primary sources include Australia, Brazil, Canada, Russia, Spain (Andalusia), Sri Lanka, and the United States.

Color

Andalusite is typically found in yellow-green, green, or brownish-red shades. As the andalusite stone is rotated, different colors and different intensities of colors can appear, including olive green, rich reddish brown, or grayish green.
