About Lapis lazuli
Lapis lazuli is a rock rather than a single mineral, made mainly of blue lazurite with white calcite and golden flecks of pyrite; its colour ranges from greyish blue to intense royal blue and deep indigo.
- Hardness
- 5-6 (Mohs)
- Everyday wear
- Pendants, earrings and brooches can be worn daily with little worry, while rings and bracelets need protective settings and are best for occasional wear.
- Care
- Clean with a soft brush and mild soap; avoid steam and ultrasonic cleaners and chemical solvents.
- Meaning and tradition
- Treasured for over 6,500 years, lapis was traditionally associated with royalty and the divine, and 18th-century courtiers used it to say "good luck" or "love me". Many people today associate it with insight, intuition and affection.
Meanings and traditions are beliefs people have held about these stones, not proven effects, and are no substitute for medical advice.
A note on value
