Labradorite

Purchase Labradorite Gemstones Online-Labradorite is a rare gemstone that has a variety of colors. It’s also often called Spectrolite or Spectrolina. Labradorite gemstones are well-known for their interesting optical properties. They will often flash in different colors as you move them around, depending on the light and what angle you’re looking at them from. 

The labradorescence or schiller effect is caused by light reflecting from layers of parallel structure within the stone, producing an iridescence like that seen in soap bubbles or oil slicks on water. It is named after Labrador, Canada where it was first discovered. Labradorite is most commonly found in Canada and Madagascar, but it can also be found in other parts of the world such as Russia and Sri Lanka.

Labradorite is a type of feldspar, which is a mineral made up of silicon, aluminum, sodium and potassium. It’s typically light to dark blue in color with a golden shimmer. The stone has long been associated with the moon and water and was believed to have healing properties for emotional balancing.

Labradorite has a hardness of 6.5-7 on the Mohs scale, making it one of the softer gems. It’s fragile and can easily be scratched or chipped by contact with hard materials. It is sensitive to heat, so keep out of direct sunlight and never clean with chemicals – just use water and a soft cloth.
