Chapter III: Internal Fingerprints

Labradorescence Geometry

Internal twinning in feldspar causes directional spectral reflections unique to each piece.

Fingerprint Study

Flash Color & Intensity

Premium labradorite shows vivid blue, teal, or gold flashes against dark gray body. Madagascar material often displays the strongest color range.

Fingerprint Study

Directional Movement

The spectral flash moves and changes with viewing angle, suggesting internal twinning planes. This angle-dependent effect confirms authenticity.

Fingerprint Study

Labradorescence Type

Russian labradorite often shows blue-green-yellow spectrum. Fidget-type labradorite is predominantly blue. Each source has characteristic flash patterns.

Fingerprint Study

Polish Impact

Correct cabochon cutting and polish direction maximize light refraction from internal planes. Poorly polished stones show weak or dim flash.
