AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Lapis lazuli is a deep blue gemstone with a long, fascinating history. Its name comes from the Latin 'lapis', meaning 'stone', and the Persian word 'lazhward', which refers to its blue color. This stone has been used for millennia in art, jewelry, and even medicine. The ancient Egyptians used it to make jewelry and amulets, while the Greeks and Romans valued it for its beauty and mystical properties. In the Middle Ages, lapis lazuli was considered a symbol of status and power, often reserved for nobility and the Church. Today, it is still used in fine jewelry and as a pigment in artistic painting. Furthermore, Afghanistan is one of the most famous sources of lapis lazuli, from which it has been mined for thousands of years.
Lapis lazuli is a semi-precious stone often associated with spiritual virtues and healing. It is believed to promote communication, mental clarity, and openness. Some believe it brings inner peace, boosts self-esteem, and helps express one's truth. It is also considered beneficial for emotional balance and meditation.
