Lapis Lazuli

One of the oldest stones in human history. Deep celestial blue, flecked with gold, mined from the mountains of Afghanistan for over six thousand years. Ground into pigment, it painted the robes of the Virgin Mary and the ceilings of ancient palaces. A stone of truth, wisdom, and inner power, worn by royalty and mystics alike, believed to awaken the mind, deepen intuition, and connect the wearer to something ancient and knowing.
