Detailed Product Description
Natural Iolite (Neeli) Bead Bracelet (8mm Beads)
This Natural Iolite Bead Bracelet is handcrafted from calibrated 8mm spherical beads of authentic natural cordierite (Iolite / Neeli). Famous among gemologists for its extraordinary trichroism (pleochroism), iolite shifts between deep violet-blue, smoky yellow, and pale grey depending on the angle of incoming light and direction of view.
With a Mohs hardness of 7.0 to 7.5, iolite is a durable gemstone suitable for regular wear. Because cordierite exhibits distinct directional cleavage, each bead is carefully cut and diamond-polished to maintain structural integrity. The beads are strung on a high-durability multi-strand silicone cord, fitting wrist circumferences from 6.5 to 7.5 inches.
In Vedic astrology, Iolite (Neeli) is traditionally regarded as an effective Upratna (substitute gemstone) for Blue Sapphire, associated with the discipline and focus of Saturn (Shani). We respect these cultural traditions, noting that planetary associations represent traditional symbolic lore rather than guaranteed outcomes.
Care instructions: Roll over the hand smoothly. Avoid sudden hard knocks against stone countertops, and remove during vigorous manual work. Clean gently with lukewarm water and a soft cloth.
