Labradorite (Blue Predominant) Raw Stones (1-2 Inch - AAA Grade - 20-32 Pieces Per Pound) Ethically Sourced from Madagascar

At first glance, these labradorite stones may appear to be just ordinary grey rocks. However upon looking closer you will notice a flash and iridescence coming off these stones making them far different than other common rocks. This type of labradorite is a high grade "AAA" variety sometimes referred to as "Spectrolite" and there are a various flashes in these labradorite stones with blue, green, yellow, and orange being the most predominant colors. Some pieces may have multicolored rainbow flashes. The flash tends to be exceptional on at least one side of the stone making them perfect for cabbing and jewelry, although many stones will produce colors on multiple sides offering versatility in crafting. While not every angle produces flash, the fascinating thing about labradorite is that light has to hit the stone at the right angle to produce the colorful rainbow effect known as labradorescence. This makes labradorite one of the most interesting crystals to hold and observe.
