Larvikite is an igneous rock composed primarily of feldspar, notable for its distinctive silver-blue schiller or flash, which adds visual interest to jewelry designs. Its neutral gray to dark blue-black coloration makes it versatile for both modern and classic styles. As an authority, Dakota Stones sources larvikite for its durability and unique optical effects. The stone's hardness and stability make it suitable for a variety of jewelry applications, including bracelets, necklaces, and earrings.
