Timeless Origins of Larvikite
Larvikite, often referred to as the “Norwegian Moonstone,” takes its name from the town of Larvik in southern Norway where it was first discovered. This igneous rock has pleased artisans and collectors alike since the early 19th century, renowned for its captivating labradorescence—a play of blues and silvers within its dark matrix. Historically, Larvikite was prized for its aesthetic and practical uses in sculpture and jewellery.

Legends and Lore Surrounding Larvikite
Traditionally, Larvikite is associated with protection and cleansing, believed to deflect negative energies and provide grounding. Folklore holds that it can strengthen courage and bring clarity to one’s mind. In some tales, the shimmering flashes within the stone are said to represent moonlight itself, capturing celestial energy that guides the wearer through darkness.

Many practitioners value Larvikite for its reputed calming and balancing properties. It is said to help release stress, promote introspection, and encourage a calm, centred mindset.
