STONE DETAILS

Labradorite Labradorite took its name from the area in Canada where it was first discovered. Blue Labradorite is a grey/blue/green colour with iridescent shimmers of various colours reflected from within the stone when the light hits it, due to refractions within the mineral itself. White Labradorite has white colour with blue iridescences. This phenomenon is known as labradorism and generally radiates blue, mauve, green, and orange colours. Labradorite is an aluminium silicate of the feldspar group, which is characterized by the trigonal crystal system and the hardness of 6-6.5 on the Mohs scale. It can be found in many countries, including Canada, Madagascar, Australia, Mexico and the USA.
