The Flash of Magic
Labradorite is best known for its stunning labradorescence—a phenomenon where the stone displays a spectacular play of colors, usually blue and green, but sometimes orange, yellow, or purple. It's like having a piece of the Northern Lights in your hands.
The Inuit Legend
According to Inuit legend, the Northern Lights were once imprisoned in the rocks along the coast of Labrador (where the stone was first identified). A warrior tried to free them with his spear, releasing most of the lights into the sky. But some remained trapped in the stone—which is why labradorite still shimmers with their colors.
