Labradorite is a captivating rough stone known for its remarkable play of color, known as labradorescence, which displays vibrant blues, greens, and sometimes oranges and yellows when light hits its surface. This striking phenomenon is due to the diffraction of light within its layered structure. Labradorite is primarily used in jewelry and as a decorative stone in various art pieces. It is believed to enhance intuition and psychic abilities, making it popular in metaphysical practices. Major sources of Labradorite include Madagascar, Canada (particularly in Labrador, after which it is named), and Finland.
