The beauty of the well-known and loved Lapiz Lazuli stone is the combined effort of multiple minerals.
Though mostly deep blue lazurite, its signature markings come from inclusions of white calcite, mossy diopside, and sparkling pyrite.
There are stones like it, but none quite match Lapiz Lazuli’s striking contrast and patterns.
It is a stunning stone that has captured the imagination for thousands of years.
Ornaments & sculptures from the stone date back as far as 7000 BC.
It was ground up to create vibrant pigments for paints in the Middle Ages and makeup in
Ancient Egypt.
It was also highly prized by ancient cultures like the Babylonians, Romans, Minoans, Israelites, and Greeks.
At present, high quality deposits of the gemstone are found in Argentina, Pakistan, and
Afghanistan.
Add this Lapiz Lazuli bracelet to your collection to be a part of its history,
and make it a part of yours.
