Iolite is the stone of the Vikings (also known as Water Saphire). They used it as a polarizing filter to help navigate the seas and find the location of the sun. This special piece of Iolite is rough cut directly from the supplier at the mines. I electroform a rustic coating of copper that complements the stone. This Iolite electroformed copper pendant is a very special little specimen, great for Vikings, sea farers and other ocean lovers or nature seekers.
