Description from the seller
For sale, two pear-cut cabochons, polished domes, reveal a deep, velvety midnight blue, speckled with tiny pyrite flashes evoking a starry sky. A lapis lazuli of fine quality, set in a sober and elegant 925 silver mount.
Lapis-lazuli has been mined for over 6,000 years in the Badakhshan mountains, Afghanistan.
Egyptian pharaohs adorned their funeral masks with it, and Cleopatra used it ground into powder as eye shadow. It is one of the oldest stones in the history of human jewelry.
In lithotherapy, lapis-lazuli is associated with the third eye chakra and the throat. It is attributed with mental clarity, authentic communication, and a connection to intuition. It supports those who seek to express their inner truth with confidence.

1. Secure shipping with tracking number.
2. Shipping twice a week. For Europe and international, delivery times may vary from 8 to 15 days depending on destination and customs clearance at the borders.
3. All my stones are genuine without color treatment, resin, or plastic. They have all been carefully selected, but as they are natural and artisanal products, they may sometimes present small imperfections.
4. Mounted on 925 millièmes silver to minimize allergies and/or skin reactions. Stopper caps provided.
5. The stones have changing reflections depending on light—the indoor lighting or the sun. The photos were taken under different angles and lighting conditions to present you with the different aspects.
Thank you for your interest and happy bidding.
