{"product_id":"rough-lapis-lazuli-128","title":"Raw Lapis lazuli for Sale – Badakhshan, Afghanistan","description":"\u003cp\u003eSourced directly from the legendary deposits of Badakhshan, this 70g unpolished specimen offers a raw look into the heart of the earth. The fine-grained lazurite matrix exhibits a deep, saturated indigo-to-ultramarine core, showing off the stone's true texture before any lapidary alteration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe specimen features a highly attractive, compact silhouette measuring 6.7 cm by 4.3 cm across, providing a perfect visual footprint that displays beautifully on a miniature gallery shelf. What makes this piece exceptional for its weight class is its significant \u003cb\u003e3.0 cm depth\u003c\/b\u003e. This thick, chunky profile gives it an incredible three-dimensional volume and a heavy, satisfying visual weight from every angle. Across its raw, texturized surfaces, veins of brilliant metallic golden \u003cb\u003ePyrite\u003c\/b\u003e and pathways of white calcite are dynamically exposed in their natural state, mirroring a dramatic, rugged \"starry night\" landscape. It serves as an ideal piece for collectors who appreciate unrefined mineral aesthetics, lapidary artists seeking premium pocket pocket material, or as a natural accent on a desk.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Premier Fine Minerals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52620684919071,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0948\/5077\/7375\/files\/IMG_3546.jpg?v=1781699122","url":"https:\/\/premierfineminerals.com\/products\/rough-lapis-lazuli-128","provider":"Premier Fine Minerals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
