Labradorite is named from where it was originally found, a Canadian province on the Isle of Paul- named Labrador. Local Inuits called it the" fire stone" for they thought the Northern Lights were trapped inside, creating it's brilliant reflective colors! It's hard to photograph its changing shining colors.
