The name Iolite comes from the Greek work for violet and this is reflected in the colour of this attractive polished Iolite Sphere. As the light angle changes the iolite colour varies in colour from sapphire blue to blue violet to yellowish gray and to light blue. This optical phoenomenon in iolite was believed to be used by Viking mariners as the world's first polarising filter.
Iolite is a vision stone and is said to help us gain inner wisdom, bring courage and unlock spiritual abilities.
At Crystal Age we pride ourselves on the quality of our stones and this crystal sphere is no exception. It is a remarkable piece ideal for crystal healing, collecting or simply display. Whatever your area of interest in crystals, this crystal ball would make a great gift.
