Iolite is another name for the mineral cordierite. Transparent specimens of iolite can show strong pleochrism with blue-violet colors changing to nearly colorless as you turn the iolite in different directions.
Iolite has also been known as water-sapphire and also as dichroite in reference to iolite's strong pleochrism.
