Lapis lazulis are among the oldest known gemstones, valued as a sacred stone in the ancient cultures of Egypt, Mexico and the empires of the East. The Egyptians considered the gemstone to be the most valuable thing they could give to their dead pharaohs as a grave offering. The Lapis Lazuli gemstone is also known as the Stone of Kings. Cleopatra had already appreciated the benefits and powers of lapis lazuli and Napoleon also always carried the protective stone with him. The stone is not only important as jewelry and healing stone - this gemstone also played a special role as a pigment because of its bright and light-resistant azure blue color. During the Renaissance, the value of the pigment was approximately equal to that of gold,

The Lapis Lazuli is here in the form of a very aesthetic sculpture. Since each stone is unique, different variations of color, texture may exist.
