A gemstone that is known for its legendary beauty- a Labradorite gemstone.

Labradorite is associated with the beauty of Northern Lights.

A Labradorite gemstone is valued for its otherworldly beauty. The Labradorite is available in an array of cold-spectrum colors that ranges from gray-green, dark gray, black, or grayish-white. The stone is generally composed of aggregate layers that usually refract light as flashed of peacock blue, gold, pale green, or coppery red. The predominant color blue hue differs when hit by the light from color deepest blue to various shades such as pale, almost blue-green.

The labradorite gemstone has been recognized and valued for its brilliant flashes of color called labradoressence, caused by lamellar twinning inside the crystal. These twin lamellae structures are set in high temperatures that resulted in the separation and layering of Labradorite as a gemstone. The extra colors that your naked eye could see in a labradorite stone set its majestic beauty. It is caused by the refracted light traveling at different speeds through the layers and coming out as another wavelength. Only a few gemstones have been recognized because of its remarkable play of color, known as the Schiller effect. One of these is Labradorite. We will walk you through fascinating and exciting facts behind the majestic and enchanting beauty of Labradorite.
