AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Magnificent natural Lapis Lazuli sphere, expertly polished to a high-gloss finish and displaying beautiful flowing bands of intense cobalt-blue lapis contrasted by white calcite streaks and scattered metallic pyrite inclusions.
The sphere exhibits a distinctive layered pattern rarely seen in standard lapis specimens, creating a highly decorative appearance from every angle. Its exceptional size and weight make it suitable as a statement piece for mineral collections, luxury interiors, galleries, offices, or feng shui displays.
The stone has been polished to reveal the natural beauty and complexity of the material while preserving its authentic geological character.
Condition
Very good condition with natural inclusions and characteristics consistent with genuine Lapis Lazuli.
