This piece is made from hypoallergenic sterling silver
Iolite is one of those gems that feels like it holds a little mystery. Known for its shifting colors and dreamy energy, it’s often called the “Viking’s Compass” for its ancient use in navigation—and its ability to help you find your own true direction.
In the Light: In bright light, Iolite shows off a beautiful range of deep violet-blue to soft lavender-gray, sometimes with flashes of silvery shimmer. It has a kind of velvety glow, and depending on the angle, you might catch multiple shades at once. This shifting effect, known as pleochroism, gives it a magical, almost otherworldly quality.
Out of the Light: In lower light, Iolite takes on a cooler, dusky blue tone—almost like twilight. It becomes more subdued but still quietly captivating, like a hidden gemstone waiting to reveal its colors when the moment’s right.
