At first glance, Labradorite can appear smoky grey and understated—until it catches the light. Brilliant flashes of blue, green, gold, and sometimes violet suddenly emerge from within the stone, creating one of the mineral world's most mesmerizing optical effects. About Labradorite Labradorite is a feldspar mineral famous for labradorescence, the shifting display of color that appears as light interacts with microscopic structures inside the stone. Rather than pigment sitting on its surface, these flashes are produced by light reflecting and scattering between incredibly thin internal layers. Named after Labrador, Canada, where the stone was documented in the 18th century, Labradorite has become connected with intuition, transformation, protection, and self-discovery—a fitting symbolism for a stone that reveals its brilliance only when viewed from the right angle. Each Labradorite pocket stone is priced individually and carefully selected for its natural color, flash, and quality.
