This Labradorite 6 Sided Pendulum is crafted from natural Labradorite and polished into a classic six-sided faceted point.

Each pendulum is suspended from a silver plated chain and finished with a round Clear Quartz holding bead, providing a comfortable point from which to hold the pendulum.

Labradorite is a member of the plagioclase feldspar series and is renowned for the remarkable optical phenomenon known as labradorescence. At first glance, the stone may appear predominantly grey, charcoal or grey-green, but movement under light can reveal flashes of blue, green, gold, yellow and, less commonly, orange or other spectral colours.

These flashes are not coatings or added colour. Labradorescence develops through the interaction of light with microscopic internal structures within the feldspar.

The position, colour and intensity of the flash vary naturally between individual pieces and can change dramatically depending on the lighting and viewing angle.

Every Labradorite pendulum therefore has its own individual combination of body colour, internal features and labradorescence.

Suitable for mineral and crystal collectors, traditional dowsing practices, decorative collections or as a distinctive gift.

Labradorite belongs to the plagioclase feldspar series and was named after Labrador in Canada, where notable material was scientifically described during the 18th century.

Its characteristic labradorescence develops from microscopic internal structures created within the feldspar as the material forms and cools.

When light enters the stone, it interacts with these structures and selected wavelengths are reflected back towards the viewer. This produces the vivid flashes that appear to move across or beneath the surface as Labradorite is turned.

What Is Labradorescence?

Labradorescence is the distinctive optical phenomenon for which Labradorite is famous.

Depending on the individual stone, flashes may appear:

• Blue
• Green
• Gold
• Yellow
• Orange
• Multicoloured

The effect is highly dependent on the direction of the light and viewing angle.

A Labradorite pendulum can therefore appear predominantly grey from one direction and suddenly display a vivid flash when rotated.

This changing appearance is a natural optical characteristic of the feldspar and is not an applied surface treatment.

Why Doesn't Labradorite Flash from Every Angle?

Labradorescence is directional.

The internal structures responsible for the effect reflect light most strongly from particular orientations. This means the flash may be highly visible from one angle but disappear almost completely when the pendulum is moved.

The absence of visible flash from a particular viewing position does not mean that the Labradorite has lost its labradorescence.

Lighting also makes a substantial difference. Direct or directional light will generally reveal the effect more clearly than diffuse lighting.

Is Labradorite the Same as Rainbow Moonstone?

They are closely related, but the trade names describe materials with noticeably different appearances.

Labradorite typically has a grey, dark grey or grey-green body colour accompanied by coloured labradorescence.

Rainbow Moonstone is the established trade name generally used for predominantly white or translucent Labradorite displaying blue or multicoloured labradorescence.

Both belong to the plagioclase feldspar series and can display the same fundamental optical phenomenon, but they are distinguished commercially by their appearance.

Metaphysical Properties

Within contemporary crystal traditions, Labradorite is commonly associated with intuition, creativity, reflection, personal awareness and transformation.

Its changing optical appearance has also contributed to symbolic associations with changing perspectives and discovering what may initially remain unseen.

These associations form part of contemporary crystal traditions and personal spiritual practices and are not scientifically established properties of Labradorite.

Chakra Association

Traditionally associated with:

• Third Eye Chakra
• Crown Chakra
• Throat Chakra

Zodiac Connection

Traditionally associated with:

• Leo
• Scorpio
• Sagittarius

Element

Water

Within contemporary crystal traditions, Labradorite is commonly associated with the Water element.

Crystal Pairing

Traditional crystal pairings for Labradorite include:

• Clear Quartz
• Rainbow Moonstone
• Amethyst
• Black Obsidian

These pairings reflect contemporary crystal traditions and personal practices rather than scientifically established effects.

Please Note

Labradorite is a natural feldspar material, so body colour, pattern, transparency, inclusions and the position, colour and intensity of labradorescence will vary between individual pendulums.

Labradorescence is dependent on lighting and viewing angle. A piece may display a strong flash from one direction while appearing predominantly grey from another. This is a natural characteristic of Labradorite.

Feldspar possesses natural cleavage, and Labradorite may contain internal lines, fractures, inclusions and structural features formed during its geological history. These are not automatically signs of damage or poor quality.

Each piece is individually distinctive, and the pendulum you receive will naturally differ from other examples within the collection.

We will randomly choose a pendulum from our collection for you.
