Lapis Lazuli is among the oldest known gemstones, revered as sacred stones in ancient cultures such as Egypt, Mexico, and the Eastern empires. Among the Egyptians, this gemstone was considered the most precious offering they could provide to their deceased pharaohs as part of their burial rites. Not only significant as jewelry and a healing stone, lapis also played a vital role as a pigment due to its vibrant and light-resistant azure blue color.
