Labradorite Round Bead Strand
The round beads in this labradorite strand feature eye-catching light-blue/green flashes characteristic of labradorite—the beads are light brown/gray and the amount of labradorescence varies from bead to bead. String the beads on their own to create a necklace or separate the beads and combine them with other colors and styles of stone and metal beads or pearls to highlight the beads’ unique color flashes. Labradorite displays a unique reflection of light that is known as 'labradorescence.' This effect is due to geometric planes within the mineral structure at a submicroscopic level that are almost always oriented in one direction, but in such a way that they cannot be expressed by simple indices. Because of this, light reflecting from these planes produces an optical effect uniquely characteristic of this stone. Each package contains one temporarily strung 15"–16" strand.
