Iolite is a popular and interesting gemstone, and is the gem variety of the mineral cordierite. It has a pretty violet blue color that is unlike other gemstones, although it has been compared to a light blue sapphire. It is this reason that it is sometimes known as "water sapphire". Although the color is attractive and popular it is not extremely rare and therefore affordable.
