“When given the choice between being right or being kind, choose kind”
From the book Wonder by R.J. Palacio
Iolite has been known as multiple different names such as Cordierite, named after French geologist Louis Cordier, a founder of the French Geological Society. Iolite has also been called Dichroite, due to a property known as ‘pleochroism’, whereby the color changes depending on how the gemstone is viewed. Usually appearing as a blue/violet color, the name iolite, is derived from the Greek ‘ios’, meaning “violet”.
THE VIKING COMPASS
According to legend, the seafaring Scandinavians today known to us as ‘Vikings’ used iolite as a navigational aid. Using it as a polarization filter, the sailors were able to determine the exact location of the sun, providing them guidance as they traversed the Atlantic Ocean to discover The New World. This is where the term ‘The Viking Compass’ originated from
Iolite is said to increase one’s ability to communicate clearly and get your message out into the world correctly
Handmade in 14K gold vermeil. The iolite is set with an open back so that your skin tone will make it look unique.
