Formed deep within the Earth, Lapis Lazuli is a metamorphic rock composed primarily of lazurite, with contributions from calcite, pyrite, and other minerals. Its formation occurs under intense heat and pressure, often in limestone deposits, creating its signature marbled appearance. Some of the finest specimens hail from Afghanistan, a source of high-quality lapis for thousands of years.

Lapis Lazuli has fascinated civilizations for millennia. In ancient Egypt, it was ground into powder for cosmetics, used to adorn pharaohs, and inlaid into treasures like King Tutankhamun’s burial mask.
