Iolite Drop Cab Sterling Silver Ring Size 9

This ring is listed as Iolite Drop Cab Sterling Silver Ring Size 9 (shop SKU SBIOLR98), and is sold at Namaste Bookshop near Union Square.

Iolite is the gem variety of cordierite, typically blue-violet, and can show strong pleochroism. In crystal traditions, it is associated with inner vision. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim. Sterling silver is 92.5% silver, often stamped .925; like all silver, it can tarnish over time and can be brightened with a soft polishing cloth.

The ring size is 9, as stated in the title. The title describes a cabochon, a smoothly rounded, unfaceted cut. Store jewelry dry and away from lotions, perfume, and harsh cleaners to keep it looking its best.
