Quick facts Stone Labradorite Composition Feldspar mineral Hardness (Mohs) 6–6.5 Color Gray base with blue, teal, or gold flash Chakra Third Eye, Crown Traditionally used for Intuition, transformation Care / Water-safe Yes, brief rinse only, dry promptly Meaning & history In crystal tradition, labradorite is associated with intuition and transformation, prized for its play of color across the surface. The elephant form carries its own symbolism of wisdom and good fortune across many cultures, and at 3" this makes a genuine statement piece for the home or a shelf of crystals, pairing naturally with our Black Obsidian Dragon Head for a display of hand-carved crystal animals. Labradorite's flash comes from thin, layered structures within the stone that scatter light as the angle changes, which is why the same carving can look almost gray at one glance and vividly blue-green at another. How to use it Most people display the elephant somewhere the light can catch its flash — a windowsill, shelf, or desk — as a striking piece of natural stone decor. Turning it slowly in natural or lamp light reveals the full range of color across the carving, which is part of the appeal of labradorite pieces at this size. Care & cleansing Wipe with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh chemicals. A brief rinse is fine, but dry it promptly rather than soaking. To cleanse its energy, many people use moonlight, sound, or gentle smoke. Frequently asked questions What is the Labradorite Elephant carving?
