I've recently discovered Denim Blue Dumortierite! I've been looking for blue semi precious gemstones and they need to meet certain criteria for my jewelry making process, they need to be beautiful, natural in color and durable. After doing some research I believe I've found those characteristics to be true of Dumortierite.
What is Dumortierite you might ask?
Here's an excerpt from Gemselect.com,
Dumortierite quartz is one of the rarer and more unusual blue varieties of quartz gemstones. It is a gemstone-quality combination of quartz aggregate, intergrown with the mineral known as dumortierite. Although quartz can occur in a wide range of colors, blue colored quartz is surprisingly quite rare. The traces of dumortierite are responsible for its distinct color, which can range from light to dark blue and in some cases reddish-brown.
