Lapis Lazuli Raw

Raw Lapis Lazuli from Afghanistan. 

Lapis Lazuli, a breathtaking deep blue gemstone speckled with golden pyrite flecks, is cherished for its stunning appearance and powerful metaphysical properties. Scientifically, Lapis Lazuli is a metamorphic rock primarily composed of lazurite, along with calcite and pyrite, which contribute to its rich, celestial color. Metaphysically, Lapis Lazuli is revered for its ability to enhance mental clarity, stimulate intellectual ability, and foster self-expression. It is also believed to encourage spiritual growth, align the third eye chakra, and facilitate profound inner insight.
