Labradorite Species

Labradorite is a mixture of silica and aluminum known as the mineral feldspar which makes up most of the earth's crust. During formation various minerals present during the heating and cooling process will solidify into microscopically thin layers. This will help create the wonderful play-of-color known as adularescence, labradorescence or aventurescence.

There are a number of other feldspars which can also be made into gemstones - some with similar dazzling phenomena:

• Spectrolite - A high quality labradorite form Finland
• Rainbow Moonstone - A gemstone with a blue glow
• Moonstone - An ethereal gemstone with liquid looking surface

Labradorite Price

Labradorite is a very reasonably priced gemstone and even the finest examples will not break the bank. As usual it is the color that decides the sales price but we must also consider the intensity of any color flashes and the area of the gemstone's surface which contains color.

Blue is probably the most common color so any gemstones displaying flashes of red, gold or orange will be just that little bit more expensive. Any Labradorite which shows two, three or more colors is even more special.

Labradorite gemstones in large carat weights are relatively easy to find so the price per carat does not rise as the gemstones get bigger - it is all about the vividness of the color display. Larger crystals are also used for gemstone carvings.

No matter the size, Labradorites will be priced between 50c and $4 per carat.
