Description

Labradorite Gemstone with Macrame Necklaces

Artechaski created these beautiful, handmade labradorite gemstone with macrame necklaces. Each necklace features a one-of-a-kind design that showcases a labradorite gemstone set in macrame.

Macrame

To begin with, Artechaski's skilled craftsman meticulously weave multiple colors of high quality macrame that fully encompasses the edges and back of the stone.  Also, as part of the customizations of each unique design, the macrame expands in a customized decorative pattern.  Also, each one-of-a-kind creation includes various additional custom features – such as embedded beads and floral patterns.  Finally, the macrame cord provides a sliding closure for universal fit.

Labradorite

Labradorite is a semi-precious gemstone within the category of plagioclase feldspar minerals.  As such, it contains various combinations of sodium, calcium, aluminum, and silicon.
Notably, labradorite shows an intense schiller – a bronze-like luster with iridescence.  Commonly, the term labradorescence describes the stone’s iridescent quality.   The stones themselves may be lightly colored or colorless.  In contrast, numerous bright colors can appear as the stone is turned to different angles from the light.  Blues and oranges are common, but other rainbow colors may also shine from these gemstones.

Interestingly, the origins of labradorite include the following:

  • Moravian missionaries discovered labradorite in Labrador, Canada in 1770 (thus, the name labradorite)
  • From Eskimo folklore, the stone had entrapped beautiful emissions of light that an Inuit warrior set free to create the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis)
  • Nicknames for the stone include the “Frozen Fire of the Aurora Borealis” and “the Stone of Magic”

Further, the stones have a glass-like appearance and may be either semi-transparent or opaque.  The stone’s organic color – often a dark gray, black, or brown – can provide a vivid contrast with the blues, greens, or other colors that shine in iridescence from the stone.
Adding to the uniqueness of each stone, are visible inclusions that, as light reflects to the impurities, contribute to the play of colors.   Facets may further contribute to the sparkle although smooth stones in round, oval, or cabochons are most common.
Finally, Madagascar is the most abundant current source of labradorite.  Finland, Canada, and the USA are other locations with significant deposits.  India and Oregon have rarer and less abundant transparent stone deposits.
