Description:
Lapis Lazuli is a deep blue metamorphic rock, prized for its intense color and specks of golden pyrite that resemble stars in the night sky. Often containing calcite veins, this stone has been used in jewelry and art for millennia. Lapis is celebrated for its striking beauty and its association with wisdom and truth.

Fun Fact:
Lapis Lazuli has been cherished since ancient times, with the Egyptians using it in pharaohs' tombs and for Cleopatra's eye makeup. The stone was also ground into a powder to create the ultramarine pigment used in Renaissance paintings. Lapis is believed to enhance intellectual ability, stimulate wisdom, and promote inner peace.
