Materials and size
Lapis Lazuli is a rock made mostly of lazurite, with calcite and pyrite, typically deep blue with golden pyrite flecks. It measures 5–5.5 on the Mohs hardness scale. Natural rock.
Afghan lapis is prized for its even royal blue and fine gold pyrite flecks. Ultramarine paint made from lapis was once more expensive than gold.
Size: approximately 5cm. Natural material varies slightly in size, colour and markings.
Traditional uses
The obelisk shape echoes the monuments of ancient Egypt, which pointed toward the sun. Mined in Afghanistan for over 6,000 years, lapis decorated the funeral mask of Tutankhamun and was ground into ultramarine pigment for Renaissance paintings. It is traditionally linked with wisdom and truth. In modern crystal tradition lapis lazuli is linked with the throat and third eye chakra and with Sagittarius and Libra. Traditional meanings are offered for interest and reflection, not as a health claim.
How to use it
Stand it upright on a flat surface or altar.
Some people rest a point on a written intention or in a crystal grid.
It pairs traditionally with sodalite or clear quartz.
Placement idea: a windowsill that catches the morning light (but not harsh midday sun) shows off colour and inclusions beautifully.
Desk idea: keep it beside your keyboard as a cue to pause, breathe and look away from the screen for a moment.
Bedside idea: some people hold a stone for a minute before sleep and set one small intention for the next day.
Care
Keep it dry: dust with a fine brush or dry cloth, and steer clear of water, salt and cleaning sprays.
Protect the tip from knocks; store it upright or wrapped.
Who it suits
A good choice for a reader, writer, teacher or anyone who loves deep blue. At £4.32 it also works as a small add-on gift or stocking filler.
