Condition Notes: Here we have a diverse offering for gemstone enthusiasts featuring lesser-known varieties such as iolite and sugilite. Iolite is famed for its pleochroism, offering a spectrum of colors from deep indigo to honey yellow. Mined primarily in India, Sri Lanka, and Africa, iolite boasts a hardness of 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, ensuring durability for everyday wear. Sugilite, discovered in 1944 by Japanese petrologist Ken-ichi Sugi, captivates collectors and designers alike. Mined primarily in the Kalahari of South Africa, sugilite's striking color is due to manganese. This gemstone parcel offers an attractive array of cooling colors in overall good condition, save for minor abrasions to some facet junctions to the smaller 3.00 mm iolites.
