Product Description

This is a spectacular, hand-polished labradorite specimen from Madagascar. Its coloration and iridescence are exceptional. The polishing is complete, bringing out natural hues - green, blue, gold, and orange. This piece will shimmer in the light, changing tones and intensity depending on the display angle and lighting.

Labradorite is a feldspar mineral known for its dazzling display of iridescent blue, green, gold and even purple colors. The changing flash of colors known as the “Schiller Effect” or “labradorescence” is caused by light bouncing back (diffraction) between internal fractures (lamellae) in the mineral and refracting back to your eyes.

Named after the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador, labradorite was introduced to the West by Moravian missionaries, who found the town of Nain Labrador in 1771 and acquired specimens from nearby Paul’s island. The majority of the world's supply of labradorite today is collected on the Island of Madagascar located east of South Africa.
