Iolite:

Iolite is also known as cordierite and is a mineral species belonging to the silicate group.
Its name derives from the Greek ‘iol’ (violet) due to its colour, which resembles that of the flower of the same name.
It is characterised by very pronounced polychroism, generally visible to the naked eye, with a predominantly blue-violet colour in most cases.
Polychroism is a term used in gemmology and mineralogy to describe a mineral’s property of exhibiting changing colours when viewed from different angles.
The main deposits of iolite are found in India, Sri Lanka, Tanzania, Brazil, Myanmar and Madagascar

Rose quartz:

The origin of the word ‘quartz’ is uncertain.
The first hypothesis suggests that it may derive from the term ‘quaterz’ or ‘quaderz’, which, until the 16th century, referred to lower-quality ores.
Another theory suggests it may be a contraction of the German word ‘gewärz’, meaning ‘growth’ or ‘sprout’.
Rose quartz has long been associated with love and fertility in many civilisations.
Rose quartz derives its colour from its inclusions: metal oxides, manganese, titanium or even dumortierite.
The main deposits of rose quartz are found in Brazil and Madagascar

Garnet:

The word ‘garnet’ derives from the Latin ‘granatium’, meaning pomegranate, a bright red fruit.
Garnets form a family of minerals comprising several varieties that share a similar crystalline structure.
They come in a wide range of colours: green, red, orange, pink, yellow, brown, black…
Our tumbled stones are almandine garnet.
Almandine garnet is characterised by its deep, intense red to reddish-brown colour, which is due to the presence of iron in its composition.
Garnets are often transparent to translucent. Their hardness and transparency make them ideal stones for jewellery.
The main garnet deposits are found in Brazil, India, Sri Lanka, Africa, Australia and Russia.
