| labradorite can produce a colorful play of light called labradorescence. as the individual fish and beads catch the light, their glow changes with each movement. labradorite is grayish blue in color but displays bright flashes of green, blue, and sometimes yellow-gold colors when viewed from different angles. originally found in labrador, canada -- hence the name -- there are also deposits in madagascar, mexico, russia, and the united states. |
