What is a Lapis Lazuli stone?

Lapis Lazuli is a fine stone (formerly known as a "semi-precious stone"), a rock composed of different minerals that give it its deep blue color, fine white veins (calcite), and small golden flecks (pyrite). Considered the most precious stone by the Persians who saw it as a starry sky, Lapis Lazuli is mainly extracted in Iran where the most beautiful deposits are still found today. The mines in the Sar-e-Sang region in Afghanistan also produce high-quality stones, praised by Marco Polo. The most productive deposits are currently found around the city of Ovalle, in Chile, where Lapis Lazuli has been designated as the national stone due to its incomparable beauty. It has a hardness of 7 on the Mohs scale. If you want to learn more about the history and virtues of the natural Lapis Lazuli stone, you can find this information in our Blog.
