About This Lapis Lazuli Specimen
This raw Lapis Lazuli specimen weighs 285 grams and comes from Badakhshan, Afghanistan, offered in its natural, unpolished state. Measuring 7.0 x 6.0 cm across the face with a 3.8 cm depth, it has a compact, near-equant footprint where the depth closely matches the width, giving it a dense, blocky form.
Mineral Composition
The specimen shows a royal blue coloring with metallic golden Pyrite veins and natural Calcite present across its raw, unaltered surface.
Display and Use
With its compact but thick profile, this specimen suits a shelf or collector's cabinet where its depth-to-width ratio gives it a dense, substantial feel despite its smaller footprint. Its raw, uncut form also makes it usable as material for lapidary artists working with rough stone rather than finished cuts.
