Tanzania Iolite (Neeli)

Tanzania Iolite, also called Neeli or Kakaneeli is a violet blue gemstone found in Tanzania. It is often used as a more affordable substitute for Blue Sapphire (Neelam Stone). Lolite is known for its deep blue violet color and natural shine, which makes it attractive for jewellery. It also shows pleochroism, meaning it can display different shades when seen from different angles. In astrology, it is believed to help improve communication, increase intuition, and support financial stability.
