How to wear an Iolite:

To prepare the ring for wearing, place it at the bottom of a metal bowl and add the following one by one: one:

1. Ganga Jal
2. Tulsi leaves (Indian Basil)
3. Unboiled cow’s milk
4. Honey
5. Ghee (clarified butter)

Recite the following mantra 108 times, to energize the ring

“Om Sham Shanishcharaye Namah”

Keep the ring/pendant for 5-10 minutes in the bowl and it can then be immediately taken out of the bowl and cleaned with water and worn on the middle finger of the correct hand.

CHARACTERISTICS OF A GOOD IOLITE:

1. A high-quality iolite is trichroic, i.e. it will manifest three different colors from different angles of the stone.
2. It should appear transparent to translucent in clarity.
3. Oily to vitreous in terms of luster.
4. The color of the stone should be intense violet, but not inky.
5. High specific gravity i.e. it should be heavier than an average stone of the same size.
