Lapis Lazuli AAA Quality - Dark Color - Free form - Superb!!! - Height: 245 mm - Width: 125 mm- 3470 g
Truly unique example of Lapis Lazuli, a stone already recognized as precious by the ancient Egyptians.
It is a rock made up of more minerals: in greater quantities Lazulite, then Calcite and finally Pyrite which with its typical golden color gives shine and brilliance to Lapis.
Since ancient times a highly sought after stone as it was the source of the blue color for all frescoes, with a cost comparable to gold because the main deposits were and still are in Afghanistan.
A specimen in natural shape but worked to best render the intense shades of colors: a home design object not to be missed!
