Misty Ring

Piece Name: Misty Ring - Within the mist lies Iolite, also known as "Water Sapphire." Originating from the Greek word for "violet," its beauty rivals that of sapphire, hence its name "Water Sapphire." Iolite also carries an ancient name, "dichroite," which in Greek means "two-colored stone." This highlights Iolite's dichroism: it reflects light and displays different colors when rotated or viewed from various angles. Legend has it that before the invention of the compass, people utilized Iolite's pleochroism to locate the sun and determine direction. - Materials: Sterling Silver, Iolite Thickness: 2mm (This ready-to-ship piece is size 10) - [Notes] All pieces bear traces of handmade craftsmanship; please consider carefully before ordering.
