Iolite is a magnesium aluminosilicate mineral. The word "iolite" derives from the Greek for "violet" and Iolite gemstones are typically blue-violet. Their color is somewhat similar to that of sapphire, but paler; and this led to iolite being nicknamed "water sapphire".

Iolite is strongly pleochroic; meaning that it displays different colors depending on the angle at which the stone is viewed. Iolite can display three different colors when viewed from different directions - blue-violet, yellow, and pale blue-clear. Iolite was once called dichroite, a name derived from the Greek for "two-colored".
