Description
Mined from: Norway
Description: This tumbled Larvikite from Norway is a mesmerizing blend of deep charcoal tones and silvery-blue flashes that dance across its surface like moonlight on wet stone. Sometimes mistaken for labradorite due to its shimmering play of light—called schiller or labradorescence—Larvikite is actually a type of monzonite, rich in feldspar and exclusive to the Larvik region of Norway. These tumbled stones reveal a galaxy-like texture, where each glint and flash comes from interlocking crystals of feldspar catching the light at just the right angle.
Geologically, Larvikite is an igneous rock composed primarily of alkali feldspar, with smaller amounts of plagioclase and mafic minerals, giving it its signature dark base and silvery flash. The stone dates back about 300 million years and is so visually striking it’s often used as decorative facing stone in architecture—sometimes sold under trade names like "Blue Pearl" granite (though it's not technically granite). These smooth tumbles make it easy to appreciate the stone’s unique texture and cosmic shimmer up close.
Metaphysically, Larvikite is often associated with grounding, mental clarity, and protection. It’s said to enhance intuition while keeping your energy anchored, making it a popular choice for those doing spiritual work who don’t want to float too far off the ground. Whether you’re drawn to its ancient geological origins or its quiet flash of mystery, this Norwegian beauty is equal parts science and magic.
