Tiger Labradorite Rock Gemstone Animal Carving
This hand carved Labradorite stone tiger figurine is 6.25 inches long and 1.6 inches at its widest and 3.75 inches tall.
Semi precious gemstone Labradorite has a background color of dark gray, but displays a beautiful iridescence, giving off rainbow-colored reflections known as labradorescence when light hits it in certain directions.
Labradorite is a feldspar and it shows the iridescent display of colors due to minute inclusions of another mineral.
It is named after where it was first found: Labrador, Canada, although our gemstone material comes from Madagascar.
Metaphysical Properties: Labradorite is thought by some to symbolize the moon and the sun. It is said to assist the wearer to handle changes, promoting strength and perseverance.
The Tiger symbolizes courage, fierceness, and strength. In shamanism, tigers are associated with power, ferocity, passion and sensuality. In China, tiger images are used as charms to ward off evil. A symbol of protection, the image of a tiger is often seen on clothing or in the home to ward off harm. In certain areas of Asia, the Tiger is regarded as the God of Wealth. Tsai Shen Yeh, the Chinese God of Wealth is depicted sitting on a tiger.
