Approximate height 8", weight 0.75lb Beautiful clusters of Labradorite ‘leaves’ with branches made from bright non-tarnish, flexible wire, anchored in a natural wood base.

The wire branches are bendable so the tree can be shaped to your liking. Hand made in India. Although Labradorite was well known to the Inuit and First Nations for decades, it wasn’t until late in the 8th century that it was ‘discovered’ on Paul’s Island, in the Labrador area of Canada. It is a semi-precious gemstone that belongs to the Feldspar group of minerals, and it is found in many colors including green-blue, red, yellow, gray, and translucent. It is used in powdered form in the manufacture of paint, glass, ceramics, paints, and many other products. Labradorite is known as ‘the stone of friendship’ or ‘the stone of mysticism’, and it is considered to be a powerful protector. It is associated with increased levels of awareness and wisdom, and is said to boost the immune system, and increase energy, cleanse, protect from negative thoughts, and help gain focus and clarity. Please note that each gemstone tree is assembled by hand and no two are exactly alike, so the tree that you receive will have some color and shape variations.
