A near-square freeform from Badakhshan
This polished Lapis Lazuli freeform from Badakhshan, Afghanistan weighs 141 grams. It is close to square, 7.2 cm by 6.8 cm, and 2.3 cm thick. That gives it a solid body and a good-sized face, not a thin, sliced look. The lazurite is fine-grained, deep royal blue and polished smooth.
What’s on the surface
Gold pyrite shows as light flecks and a few thin veins against the blue. The pattern is lighter than on the block-style pieces, so the stone reads as mostly blue with gold accents. If you want help telling real pyrite from fakes, see our Afghan Lapis Lazuli buying guide.
Size and display
It stands on a shelf, and it’s small enough to hold in one hand. A freeform like this makes a compact display piece for a desk or a cabinet. Wondering whether polished or raw suits your collection? Our guide on rough vs polished stones can help.
