💎 Key Features

• Optical Phenomenon:The signature "flash" of labradorite isn't surface color. It occurs when light enters the stone and reflects off microscopic internal layers of impurities, scattering and diffracting into a brilliant play of color.
• Composition: It is a plagioclase feldspar consisting of 50-70% calcium and 30-50% sodium.
• Hardness: It ranks between 6 and 6.5 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it a durable stone for jewelry (like pendants or earrings) but still susceptible to scratches from harder materials.
• Symbolism & Meaning: Labradorite is a gemstone known for its magical or mystic qualities — often called a “fire stone” by the Inuit. It’s believed to awaken intuition, strengthen the aura, and protect against negative energies.
