A bit of gemology: labradorite is a calcium-sodium plagioclase feldspar, (Ca,Na)(Al,Si)₄O₈, which crystallizes in the triclinic system. Hardness of 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale, density of approximately 2.7. Its reflections are not a color of the material but an optical phenomenon, labradorescence: light reflects off fine internal lamellae of alternating compositions and produces, by interference, blue, green, or golden flashes depending on the viewing angle. On beads of this size, the effect appears in touches, bead by bead. The stone takes its name from Labrador, Canada, where it was described around 1770; today it is mainly mined in Madagascar, Finland, India, and Canada.
Good to know: labradorite has two marked cleavage planes. It wears well, but it is sensitive to sharp impacts: avoid dropping it on a hard surface.
In lithotherapy: labradorite is associated with the third eye and crown chakras. It is said to act as a shield stone, protective against outside energies, and to have virtues of intuition and serenity.
100% natural product: the size, shape, shade, intensity of the reflections, and number of beads may vary slightly from one strand to another. Dimensions and quantities are given for information only.
