What makes pear shaped Labradorite gemstones unique?
Pear shaped Labradorite gems stand out due to their labradorescence—a striking optical effect that shows flashes of blue, green, gold, or even violet when viewed from different angles. The pear cut enhances this effect with its elongated shape and sharp point.
Are pear shaped Labradorite stones suitable for jewelry?
Yes, they are ideal for pendants and earrings. The teardrop shape provides symmetry and elegance, while Labradorite's hardness (6–6.5 on the Mohs scale) offers reasonable durability with proper care.
Do pear shaped Labradorite gemstones occur naturally in this shape?
No, all pear shapes are created through skilled lapidary work. Labradorite is cut from rough material to optimize both shape and the visibility of its color flashes.
What colors can I expect in pear shaped Labradorite gems?
Though typically gray or dark base-toned, high-quality stones show vibrant flashes of color—most commonly blue and green, but sometimes orange, gold, or multicolor.
Is every Labradorite stone labradorescent?
Not all Labradorite exhibits strong labradorescence. When buying from a reputable seller like GemSelect, you're more likely to find stones with desirable optical properties.
Are these gems treated or enhanced in any way?
Most Labradorite gemstones, including pear shaped cuts, are untreated. They are valued for their natural phenomena rather than color or clarity enhancements.
Where does Labradorite used in pear shapes usually come from?
Major sources include Madagascar, Finland, and Canada. Finnish varieties (Spectrolite) are especially known for intense color play.
How should I care for a pear shaped Labradorite gemstone?
Avoid ultrasonic cleaners and harsh chemicals. Clean with mild soap and water, and store separately to prevent surface scratches.

I have been buying gems for several years off and on and love their selection and great low prices. I started out wanting to get an example of each type of gem but after looking at all the types of gems and reading about them I realize it is almost impossible for me to do. It took me years just to read about them all. Gem Select is the best gem site you can find. For information or to buy. Steve M.
