What Is Ludwigite?
--> Ludwigite is a borate mineral composed of magnesium, iron borate.
--> It typically forms dark, needle-like inclusions inside host minerals, especially peridot.
--> The presence of ludwigite does not lower the value of the peridot; in fact, it increases uniqueness and is often appreciated by collectors.
Visual Appeal:
The fine, black ludwigite inclusions contrast beautifully with peridot’s vibrant green colour.
When present in well-formed patterns, these inclusions can look like:
Brush strokes
Feathers
Lightning bolts
Often sold under labels like "designer peridot" or "inclusion art gems."
Inclusions & Treatments:
--> Inclusions like ludwigite are not flaws, but internal "signatures" of natural formation.
--> These gems are rarely treated, so what you see is 100% natural geological artistry.
--> Each Ludwigite peridot is one-of-a-kind, like a gemstone fingerprint.
