1. Labradorite presents labradorescence.



Some minerals have the property of reflecting the colors of the rainbow, while the angle of observation or the angle of incidence of the light is varied. This property is known as iridescence or goniochromism.

Labradorite presents iridescence which, in its particular case, is called labradorescence. When we move it, we can observe, among other colors, blue, violet, yellow, orange or green.

3. Blue related to health care.

BLUE is the color of the SKY and the SEA and both transmit peace, serenity and stability. Looking at the sky in the morning on a day we plan to go on an excursion and finding it blue, gives us the assurance that the day will be perfect. Blue is used to give an image of confidence.

On the other hand, the blue of the sky and the sea also suggests freedom and stimulates imagination, creativity and sensitivity.

Blue is linked to practicality, order, cleanliness and healing. We recall that blue is one of the colors used in their uniforms by the health and security forces. For this reason it is also related to seriousness.

In spaces of our home such as the bedroom or study it is interesting to include blue, as it helps to create quiet environments, conducive to sleep or study. It is a refreshing color to consider also in the bathroom.
