About the stone

Labradorite is a feldspar mineral named after Labrador, Canada, where it was first identified in 1770. Its most distinctive feature is labradorescence — the iridescent flash of blue, gold, green, or violet that appears when the stone is turned in the light, caused by light interference within thin layers of the crystal structure.

In crystal tradition

In crystal tradition, labradorite is associated with intuition and transformation. The purple variant — with its violet flash — is sometimes preferred in crystal practice for crown chakra or higher-vibration work, the colour resonating with traditional associations of purple stones with mystical and intuitive qualities.

Each piece is one of a kind. Natural variations in colour, shape, size, and pattern are part of what makes the stone what it is — the photograph shows a representative example, your piece will look slightly different.
