Full Flash Orange-Yellow Labradorite — Richardson's Rock Ranch Oregon — The Full Flash
Accepted payment methods
It was Day 3 of the 3,000-Mile Run. I drove every mile. The 3,000-Mile Run → We pulled into Richardson's Rock Ranch — a thousand pounds of raw labradorite on a pallet in 95-degree Oregon heat. An employee told us the blues were weak. Don't look for blue. I don't listen to don't. I spent an hour in that sun turning over raw boulders until I found this one. The Richardson Strike →
The stone had fractured inside itself at some point. Shifted. Then healed back together. That's why the flash splits. The upper left fires gold-to-green at one angle. The lower right fires gold-to-green at a different angle. Two separate flash events in one stone. Bob cut it to honor both. Every stone we brought back from that run has a story. This one wrote its own. The 3,000-Mile Run Collection → Flip it over and the back runs full gold to full rainbow — even purple. Most people never see that side. The Richardson's Rock Ranch Collection →
Not dyed. Not enhanced. One of a kind.
