What is Labradorite?
Besides one of my personal favorites of course haha. Labradorite is a member of the Feldspar mineral family. This crystal is formed when heat and pressure mix a specific combination of minerals. The mixture then slowly cools down and hardens separating into layers and making inclusions at the same time. This is what would give the crystals that multicolor shimmering that refracts light in the colors of peacock blue, pale green, gold, orange and so much more. The most common type is the blue variety which can appear in shades from pale blue and blue mixed with green to even deeper hues.
Labradorite crystal is also known as the Aurora Borealis gemstone and originates from Labrador, Canada, and the flashes of color that show when labradorite is polished and cut at the perfect angle is called “labradorescence”. These flashes happen within the stone and are not actually part of the coloring of the stones. Instead, light travels through the various cracks and layers and, in return, reflects colorful flashes that can be seen on the surface.
You have probably also heard of ‘Spectrolite’ in reference to Labradorite as well. For the most part, it is a reference to labradorite specifically found in Finland, and has become a ‘commercial’ name for it. Although some believe it is interchangeable with labradorite that provides a full spectrum or ‘gem grade’ quality of labradorite. Read more below.
Labradorite stone is a solid stone with a 6- 6.5 score on the Mohs scale, but it still can be scratched by other harder crystals. An interesting phenomenon that appears in this crystal is the schiller optical effect that’s also called labradorescence. It’s caused by sub microscopical formations oriented in one direction which aid in the reflection of the light.
What does Labradorite look like?
Labradorite is an opaque gray stone that can have iridescent “flashes” of color. These flashes of color can make the stone look blue, green, yellow, orange, red and many colors in between. Pink and purple labradorite have become highly sought after colors lately! Labradorite stone is mainly found in large chunky masses and has a grainy plastic-like texture. Unpolished labradorite looks very different once it’s been polished although beautiful in its own way. The stone goes from a gray (some almost brown or black even) color with a rough texture to a colorful and shiny smooth stone.
Where is Labradorite Found?
Labradorite can be found in various locations across the globe. Finland and Norway are notable sources of Labradorite, known for their high-quality specimens displaying vibrant flashes of blue, green, and gold. Madagascar is another significant producer, offering a range of Labradorite varieties with intense color displays and remarkable clarity. Most of what you see on the market today is from Madagascar.
In China, Labradorite crystal is found in limited quantities, often exhibiting unique patterns and hues. The United States is also home to Labradorite deposits, with notable occurrences in states such as Oregon, New York, and Maine. However, it is in Canada's Labrador region where Labradorite received its name, as it was first discovered there. Labradorite from Labrador showcases exceptional iridescence and is highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts.
What Is the Difference Between Labradorite and Spectrolite?
Labradorite and spectrolite are both mesmerizing stones known for their iridescent play of colors, but they do have some distinct differences. I believe spectrolite is also a trademarked name? Labradorite is a more common variety, while spectrolite is a specific type of labradorite found in Finland. The main distinction lies in the intensity and range of colors displayed. Labradorite typically exhibits a vibrant blue, green, or gold play of colors, while spectrolite showcases a wider spectrum of vivid hues, including intense blues, purples, oranges, and even flashes of red. The flashes also seem to be a different layout with Spectrolite having more detailed colors and labradorite having a wider overall flash.
Another difference is the availability and rarity of the two stones. Labradorite is widely available and can be found in various locations around the world, while spectrolite is considered more rare and is primarily sourced from specific mines in Finland. Both Labradorite and spectrolite possess a unique and captivating beauty, but spectrolite's unparalleled color range sets it apart as a truly extraordinary gemstone.
