Labradorite appears in various forms, in polished and un-polished finishes. It can display an iridescent effect in the light (Schiller). The price of Labradorite can vary. Its value increases according to the frequency and brightness of flashing, shimmering colours which reflect on the sides when light is directed at it. The flashes of colour can be iridescent blue, golden, lilac, pink, orange, red and grey. Not all pieces of Labradorite have a ‘Shiller’ effect after being polished. Some only have a couple of different colours scattered across the sides. The rarest pieces have a very distinct rainbow-coloured effects known as ‘Labradorescence’.
The ancients said it had magical protective properties and called it the stone of transformation. It was said to be ‘the bringer of light and inner vision’ and to deflects unwanted energies.
Geology: Labradorite is a calcium enriched feldspar mineral first identified in Labrador in Canada. Labradorite occurs in gneiss that has been produced through the metamorphism of Labradorite bearing igneous rocks. It is found in Sedimentary rocks that derived from the weathering of other rocks that contain Labradorite. It’s a mineral in the plagioclase series and it shares many properties of plagioclase minerals. Having a hardness between 6 and 6.5, Labradorite is the only mineral in the plagioclase series that exhibits strong Labradorescence.
Care must be taken not to get Labradorite wet. Water will remove the light mineral oil film on the surface of the stone, it will remove the shine and create a dual appearance and even a rough feel to the surface.
