Description

Lovely lavender-purple tanzanite is actually a blue zoisite that was renamed by jewelry store Tiffany & Co. as a tribute to where it was first discovered (Tanzania). Tanzanite has become a popular alternate birthstone for December. The semiprecious gemstone closely resembles, and is often confused with, sapphire and iolite. Almost all tanzanites on the market have been heat-treated to produce a deeper color (the rough is often brownish yellow). The gemstone displays pronounced pleochroism (different colors at different angles).
Handle tanzanite beads with care: Do not clean them in an ultrasonic machine or steamer; high temperatures and quick temperature changes can damage them. Tanzanite is believed to help wearers slow down, take it easy, and awaken their hearts and minds. Physically, it is said to help stress-related illnesses, especially high blood pressure. Tanzanite is also associated with the brow chakra.

Iolite: This silicate mineral (cordierite) can occur as crystals or grains in igneous rocks, as a result of aluminous sediment in magma. Also known as water sapphires, dichroite, Spanish lazulite, and Vikings' compass, the transparent purple-blue variety of this stone is iolite, named after the Greek word for violet, ios. Iolite beads and stones are known for their extreme pleochroism, or ability to change colors depending from which angle you look at them. While this semiprecious gemstone has a nice Mohs hardness of 7-7.5, it should be protected from harsh blows due to its distinct cleavage in one direction. This lovely purple gemstone is said to open and expand psychic talents, and is supposed to be excellent for use on the third eye and crown chakras.
