Beautiful Labradorite buddha carving with intense sheen. Self standing, and includes peachy and gold hues. This piece is a gorgeous example of Labradorite, with bright colours and lovely shine.
 
The buddha in this carving has their hands in the Dhyani Mudra, a hand gesture representing meditation and enlightenment. Combined with Labradorite’s meaning of connection, this is the ideal piece to keep close needing a little peace, or expanding the mind.

Holistic Healing:
Traditionally used to connect two souls through the stars. Used when distanced from loved ones to keep connected. In folk tradition, associated with emotional balance and easing tension. 
 
Metaphysical Traditions:
Regarded in crystal tradition as a soothing and protective stone. Enhances patience, clears the mind and is traditionally associated with heightened intuition.
 
Cool facts: Labradorite is an iridescent Feldspar mineral first found in Labrador Canada. Valued for its lustrous metallic reflections that are said to resemble a butterfly's wing, this play of colour or 'shiller' is aptly known as 'labradorescence'.
 
Inuit legend tells of a warrior who found the Northern Lights trapped in a rock on the Labrador coast and freed most of them with a blow of his spear — the light that stayed behind became Labradorite.
The blue or gold flash you see comes from thin, layered structures within the crystal — thinner layers scatter light into blue and violet tones, while thicker layers produce the warmer gold and green flashes.
