Lapis Lazuli is a deep blue metamorphic rock found as early as the 7th millennium BCE. Lapis lazuli, also known just as Lapis was exported to Europe by the end of the Middle Ages where it was ground into powder and made into ultramarine, the finest and most expensive of all blue pigments.
Known as the wisdom stone, Lapis Lazuli was adored by ancient Egyptians. It is said to bring wisdom and self-expression.
Raw copper and even plated or filled metals can tarnish or oxidize over time. Your purchase will include a cleaning cloth that can be used to clean the metallic surfaces. Oxidized copper or silver can develop a beautiful antiqued patina over time.
