AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

We specialize in always offering you the best quality and special Lapis. As you can see in the photos, this Lapis freeform is a standout eye-catcher, with its distinctive aesthetic shape and excellent quality. It is 100% natural, and the photos were taken without filters or the like.

The main component of lapis lazuli is lazurite, comprising 25 to 40% of it; it is also made up of numerous other minerals such as calcite, diopside, and augite.

The lapis lazuli promotes sincerity and improves one's credibility. Through increased optimism, it helps with depression, anxiety or blockages, lets go of bad habits and facilitates the ability to take criticism. In addition, it creates new self-confidence and makes it easier to get rid of oppressive burdens. However, lapis lazuli can also promote a clear mind, concentration and intuition. This healing stone is also helpful in that it opens up relationships and friendships.

A highlight in every collection. Lapislazulis are among the oldest known gemstones that have already been appreciated as a sacred stone in the ancient cultures of Egypt, Mexico and the empires of the East. Thus, among the Egyptians, the gemstone was considered the most precious thing they could give to their dead pharaohs as a burial gift. The stone is not only important as a jewel and healing stone, this gemstone also played a special role as a pigment because of its luminous and light-resistant azure colour.
