Beatrice’s favorite gemstone: Labradorite

Today, I would like to introduce you to an extraordinary fine stone that occupies a special place in my creations: labradorite. Known for its unique reflections and mystical beauty, this gem is a true natural treasure. I will tell you more about its origin, its colors, its shine, as well as its benefits in lithotherapy.

Finally, I will guide you to my exclusive creations made with blue fire labradorite, a premium quality variety, the only one I use.

Origin and Name

Labradorite was first discovered in the 18th century on the Labrador Peninsula in Canada, from which it gets its name. Since then, other deposits have been found in Finland, Madagascar, Russia, Ukraine, and the United States. Each region brings subtle variations in the stone's appearance.

Origin and Quality

For my Orphée Bijoux jewelry, I work exclusively with premium quality blue fire labradorite, which I source from India. It is also there that my jewelry is made with care and artisanal precision, an exclusive know-how, guaranteeing unique and exceptional pieces.

Colors, Light and Radiance

Labradorite is famous for its phenomenon of labradorescence, an iridescence that creates flashes of bright, changing colors, often blue, green, yellow, or orange. The base color of labradorite varies from gray to blue, with greenish hues. Under the light, its reflections seem to dance and change depending on the viewing angle, offering a fascinating visual spectacle.

Lithotherapy

In lithotherapy, labradorite is appreciated for its protective and balancing virtues. It is often used to strengthen the aura, stimulate intuition and bring emotional balance. Although these properties are in no way a substitute for medical treatment, they can contribute to a general feeling of well-being.
