  • These can be used in short or long sections to add a lot of kinetic energy and bulk to larger necklace designs without too much extra weight

  • The finest royal blue Lapis comes from the West Hindu Kush mountains of Afghanistan. It's flecked with gold Pyrite, which shows it’s natural and not dyed.
  • Beloved from ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia to Greece and Rome, Lapis was used it as a reward for bravery. It was also considered to be a stone of royalty in ancient Sumer and China, and later in Russia as well as other European countries.
  • It’s the birthstone for Virgo and December
  • Metaphysical: Lapis is known as the stone for spiritual seekers, and students.
  • Buddhists recommend Lapis for fostering inner peace and freedom from negative thoughts. For both its color and its energy, Lapis is one of my personal favorites
