[9/7 10 PM Sale] Indian Iolite Sunstone 0.449ct Loose Stone
Iolite is beautiful for its deep blue-violet hue, reminiscent of a violet flower. It is a gemstone known for "pleochroism," where it displays different colors depending on the angle from which it is viewed. This particular specimen is an iolite that exhibits an optical effect known as aventurescence, which looks like glitter. It is commonly referred to as "Iolite Sunstone" or "Aventurescent Iolite." The sparkling light within the blue-violet depths resembles stars shining in the night sky. Enjoy this starry sky that you can hold in your hands. A penlight was used during photography.
This is an Indian iolite sunstone with a long hexagonal cut by the Sri Lankan lapidary, Mr. Sanje.

Also, some photos may have been taken using a penlight.
※ For products that include UV fluorescence photos, we use a 365nm wavelength blacklight for photography. If you use a light with a different wavelength (e.g., around 395nm), the fluorescence may appear weaker or be difficult to confirm. The blacklight we use can be found here.
