Hydrophanic refers to a gemstone's ability to become transparent or translucent when immersed in water or certain liquids. This phenomenon is due to the gemstone's structure and composition, which allows it to temporarily change its optical properties when exposed to a medium with a similar refractive index. Hydrophanic gemstones are prized for their unique ability to display different levels of transparency depending on environmental conditions.
