The stone often shows pleochroism, meaning it can display different shades of blue, gray, or violet depending on the viewing angle. This optical effect made iolite historically useful to Viking navigators, who are believed to have used thin pieces of the mineral as a polarization filter to help locate the sun on cloudy days.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"485\" data-end=\"808\"\u003eThis worry stone has been polished with a smooth thumb indentation, making it comfortable to hold and rub between the fingers. The polished surface highlights the natural color of the iolite while giving the stone a durable, smooth finish. Worry stones are commonly carried in a pocket or kept on a desk as tactile objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"810\" data-end=\"1041\"\u003eMetaphysically, iolite is often associated with clarity, self-reflection, and inner guidance.
