Image 1 - 8: 66.76 grams Image 9 - 11: 24.18 grams Spectrolite is the trade name for top-grade labradorite from Ylämaa, Finland. It's distinguished from ordinary labradorite by its darker base colour and the full-spectrum colour flash (blues, greens, golds, and reds all present in a single stone) that gives it its name. The optical effect, called labradorescence, is caused by light diffracting through microscopic twinning planes within the feldspar. The stone itself produces the colour, with no dye or treatment involved. A genuinely spectacular cab material. Show more
