Natural Lapis Lazuli Cabochons

Lapis lazuli is one of the most popular aggregate/metamorphic rocks, displaying a deep blue that sparkles with inclusions of pyrite, making each lapis stone a true treasure. Aggregate refers to the enchanting interplay of minerals commonly found in lapis: azurite, calcite, and pyrite. Lapis may also contain other trace minerals, affecting the color and pattern of inclusions. Reminiscent of a blue sky with sparkling stars, lapis is one-of-a-kind in appearance and easy to work with for jewelry designs, often fashioned into cabochons.
