Natural Iolite Tumbled Stones – Set of 3 Violet-Blue Polished Crystals

This set includes 3 natural iolite tumbled stones with smooth polished surfaces and the violet-blue coloring associated with this distinctive gemstone. Each stone is naturally unique, so shape, size, tone, and internal features will vary from piece to piece.

Iolite is valued for its blue to violet-blue appearance and is also known mineralogically as cordierite. It can show noticeable color variation when viewed from different directions, a property called pleochroism. The polished finish makes these stones suitable for carrying, crystal grids, display, meditation, gifting, or adding to a mineral and gemstone collection.
