A classic of gemstone jewelry! The faceted balls of labardaorite have a diameter of 8mm, the length of the labradorite strand is about 39cm.
The dark labradorite belongs to the feldspar group. Strengthening intuition, depth of feeling and medial gifts are classic applications of the mineral; as well as the support of truth-seeking and reflection.
In the 18th century the first Labradorites reached Europe, after they were found on the Canadian peninsula Labrador in 1770. The Czech missionary Father Adolf found the first pieces there when the Herrnhuters established numerous settlements on the forest-covered peninsula in the Atlantic Ocean. The mineral was given its name "Labradorite" in 1832 by the French mineralogist and professor François Bedaunt (1787 - 1850) because of its location on the Labrador Peninsula. Occasionally encountered spellings such as labardorite, labradoride, labradoriet, labradorite, labratorite or lapradorite are therefore incorrect.
