Labradorescence

Labradorite is the stone of magic and is greatly admired for its optical phenomena known as Labradorescence. This is when light enters the stone and reflects back to the observer a display of colors. With Labradorite it's all about the play of color when light flashes through it.

I like to capture the best of my stones so it is possible to see the same color flash as seen in the photos in good lighting. Please know that without any light reflecting through the stone it will be gray in color. This is the case for all Labradorite stones. Try viewing the stone under a light source and you will see the play of colors. 

The colors seen on Labradorite are deep within the stone, not on the surface. Depending on the light source, the flash on a labradorite stone will vary drastically. Sometimes the flash is more vibrant from a frontal view or from an angle. Every stone is unique and differs from the next. 

Depending on how it lays on the chest of the wearer and the direction of the light source, it will vary in color as well. There are several factors that will alter the flash which include but isn't limited to the time of day for sunlight, type of lighting whether it's natural or artificial, and the angle at which it's being viewed by the observer. 

It's important to have realistic expectations prior to purchasing labradorite jewelry. In order to understand this you must be knowledgeable about the stone.
