Silver Lapis Stone Inset Earrings Afghanistan

Lapis lazuli, commonly known as lapis, is a prized deep blue metamorphic rock featuring golden flecks, comprised of minerals like lazurite, calcite, and pyrite. Loved for centuries as a semi-precious gemstone, lapis stone beads are cherished in jewelry for their vibrant blue hue, unique patterns, and natural allure, often paired with metals or other gemstones in necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. With roots tracing back to ancient civilizations like Egypt, Sumerians, Babylonians, and Assyrians, lapis was revered for its mystical properties, used in both ornamentation and medicinal practices. Beyond adornment, lapis lazuli served as a revered pigment—ultramarine—in renowned artworks by masters like da Vinci and Michelangelo. Renowned for more than its beauty, lapis stone beads are believed to possess healing qualities, potentially aiding in stress relief, enhancing communication, and fostering mental clarity, associated with the throat chakra for self-expression. Whether seeking a statement piece or subtle elegance, lapis beads offer versatility, elegance, and sophistication to any jewelry collection.
