Lapis lazuli~
Offered here is a fancy cabochon of top shelf lapis lazuli, from Afganistan. This superb material is just wonderful to work with, the best, and I feel very lucky to have it! The stone features deep royal blue coloration, with but a few speckles of shiny metallic pyrite and white calcite in one small area. My personal preference is silver for setting deep blue lapis like this, but no doubt the contrast with bright gold would look splendidly rich too. The stone has a nicely rounded dome of nearly 6mm , a gracefully fluid shape, and it is polished both front and back.
Size: 29x29mm
Weight: approximately 37 carats
Price: Sold
