Item Description

An impressive and gorgeous large polished slab of labradorite from the FRL area (First Reported Locality) in eastern Labrador. Labradorite is a variety of Anorthite, a member of the Feldspar Group. It is renowned for its fabulous optical iridescence or schiller effect. It is widely used in jewelry and ornamental work. This rich piece has stunning areas of peacock-blue iridescence, typical of fine labradorite specimens. The mostly parallel white fractures and opposing white vein on the face dramatically enhance the visual appeal of this beautiful piece. Classic and excellent Labrador labradorite. High grade lapidary material. Mass is 1026 grams or 2.3 pounds. Ex R.D. Mushlitz Collection.
