Labradorite: The Stone That Speaks to Fall and Soul
As the leaves start turning and the air gets that crisp edge, I always find myself reaching for labradorite. There’s something about its moody flash of blue and gray that feels like it was made for autumn. If you’ve never worn labradorite before, let me introduce you to one of my favorite stones to work with and wear.
I craft each piece by hand in my little studio, and this season I’ve been obsessed with hexagon-shaped labradorite beads. They’re knotted into a soft, flexible necklace that moves with you, finished with a sterling silver clasp that adds just the right amount of sleek and cool. It’s a piece that feels earthy and elevated all at once.
Why Labradorite?
Labradorite isn’t just beautiful—it’s meaningful. Known as the stone of transformation, it’s said to support intuition, protect your energy, and spark creativity. I love that it’s not flashy in a traditional way. Instead, it catches the light when you move, revealing deep blues, oranges, and even hints of green and purple. It’s like wearing a little mystery around your neck.
For me, labradorite is a reminder to stay grounded while embracing change. That’s why I think it’s perfect for fall, when everything around us is shifting. The trees, the light, our routines. Wearing labradorite feels like leaning into that transition with grace.
How to Wear It
This necklace is designed to be versatile. The hexagon beads give it a modern edge, while the hand-knotting keeps it soft and organic. You can wear it solo with a chunky sweater or layer it with gold chains for a more styled look. Customers pair it with everything from flannel shirts to silk blouses. It’s one of those pieces that adapts to your vibe.
If you’re someone who loves neutrals in the fall, think camel, cream, olive, rust. Labradorite adds a cool-toned contrast that makes your outfit pop without overpowering it. And if you’re into deeper jewel tones like burgundy or navy, the stone’s flash harmonizes beautifully.
Styling Tips for Fall
- Pair it with a turtleneck or mock neck top to let the necklace sit just above the fabric.
- Layer it with longer gold chains to create depth and texture.
- Wear it with a denim jacket or wool coat for a casual but intentional look.
- Let it peek out from under a scarf for a subtle shimmer.
Handmade with Intention
Every necklace I make is a little different. The stones vary in flash and tone, and I knot each one by hand. That’s the beauty of small-batch jewelry: no two pieces are exactly alike. I source my labradorite carefully, looking for stones that have that signature glow. The gold finish is subtle but luxe, and the hexagon shape adds a geometric twist that feels fresh.
If you’re looking to add something meaningful to your fall wardrobe, labradorite is a beautiful place to start. Whether you believe in its metaphysical properties or just love the way it looks, it’s a stone that invites you to slow down, reflect, and embrace the season.
Thanks for supporting handmade and small business. It means the world to me.
