Sterling Silver Iolite Earrings

Iolite is called Water Sapphire and is the name for the gem variety of Cordierite. It was thought to have been used by the Vikings to aid with navigation by acting as a polarizing filler to help them determine the position of the sun on cloudy days. It was first discovered in 1813 and named after Louis Cordier, the French Geologist. The more common name Iolite comes from the Greek for Violet. Iolite with sunstone within the crystal forms a mesmerizing combo with the darker depths of the iolite offset by the copper flashes of the sunstone.
