A striking stone from Tanzania, boasting an impressive bluish-violet hue. This piece is designed to leverage its dichroism, allowing the deep, clear blue characteristic of iolite to be fully appreciated from the front.

The outline features delicate facets, creating a fancy shape that renders the pear shape even more exquisite and elegant. With every play of light, a soft violet shimmer emerges from the rich violet base color.

Iolite is known for often containing inclusions, but this particular stone, despite having slight inclusions, maintains a remarkably clear crystalline structure with no prominent flaws.

Furthermore, its dichroism is evident, with faint straw-colored reflections appearing depending on the viewing angle, adding to its charm as it displays various expressions under different light sources and angles.

This iolite is a masterpiece, perfectly balanced in beauty and individuality, with excellent color saturation, brilliance, and shape.
