Our rough labradorite is an unpolished natural piece.
We gravitate toward natural textures because tactile signals from C-tactile (CT) afferents journey through the lamina I pathways to the posterior insular cortex, the region responsible for bodily comfort and grounding (Craig et al., 1994; Björnsdotter et al., 2009). The tactile experience of rougher materials, including brushed wood, heavy linen, raw ceramics, and woven fibers, leads to greater insular activation and a more comforting physical groundedness feeling compared to smooth surfaces. When people need to feel more emotionally stable, they look for rich physical sensations to help them feel grounded. Any product with a natural texture provides this sensory anchor.
