Burren Iolite Pendant

Iolite - known as the gemstone of the Vikings, and closely resembles blue sapphire. Vikings were reputed to use the clarity of the gemstone to mark the position of the sun, and so map a true course home. Seen here set in gold.

This award winning collection takes its inspiration from North West Clare's world famous area of natural beauty, the Burren. The natural limestone area has a rocky landscape of limestone that yet nurtures some of the world's rarest flora and fauna. Mediterranean, Arctic and Alpine flowers grow side by side in this area of outstanding contradiction and sparse beauty.
