Lapis Lazuli Bracelet — Wisdom & Intuition

Connect with the timeless deep-blue beauty of this Lapis Lazuli Bracelet, hand-strung from natural lapis lazuli reported by our supplier as coming from Afghanistan, which is where lapis has been mined for six thousand years. Look for the gold flecks of pyrite and the white threads of calcite; those are the stone telling you what it is.

Known for its distinctive royal blue to deep ultramarine coloring, Lapis Lazuli has been treasured for thousands of years as an ornamental gemstone and decorative stone. Natural Lapis may display beautiful variations of rich blue, lighter blue areas, white Calcite markings and small golden-toned Pyrite inclusions, giving every bead its own individual appearance.

Also searched for as Lapis Lazuli Crystal, Lapis Lazuli Stone, Blue Lapis Lazuli and Natural Lapis Lazuli, this historic gemstone has long been appreciated for both its striking appearance and cultural significance.

Unlike gemstones composed primarily of a single mineral, Lapis Lazuli is naturally occurring rock material whose characteristic blue coloring is primarily associated with Lazurite. Natural material may also contain Calcite, Pyrite and other minerals, creating the distinctive variations commonly seen throughout natural lapis lazuli.

Lapis Lazuli is traditionally associated with wisdom, truth, communication, self-expression, intuition and inner awareness. Its rich blue coloring is frequently connected with the Throat Chakra and Third Eye Chakra in crystal traditions.

Each bracelet is carefully handcrafted using smooth round gemstone beads and durable stretch elastic. Choose your preferred bead size and wrist measurement for a comfortable, custom fit.
