About Lapis Lazuli
Lapis lazuli stands apart from most gemstones because it is not a single mineral, but a richly patterned metamorphic rock composed of several minerals. Its iconic deep blue hue comes primarily from lazurite, which must make up at least 25% of the material for it to be classified as true lapis. Golden specks of pyrite often appear scattered throughout the stone, creating a striking contrast that enhances its beauty and has made lapis a prized gem for thousands of years.
