100g Royal Blue Rough Lapis Lazuli – Badakhshan, Afghanistan

Sourced directly from the legendary deposits of Badakhshan, this 100g rough specimen showcases an extraordinarily rich royal blue coloration. The fine-grained lazurite matrix holds a deep, uniform saturation that represents the classic, top-tier grade of Afghan material, remaining free from distracting white calcite patches.

Preserved in its raw, natural state, the specimen has an excellent, elongated profile spanning 7.5 cm in length. Across its unpolished faces, a spectacular arrangement of bright, metallic golden Pyrite flecks catches the light beautifully as the stone is turned, creating a classic "starry night" visual appeal. With its solid 3.2 cm thickness, this specimen is perfectly proportioned for an upright shelf display or as high-yield rough for custom lapidary projects like fine carvings, cabochons, or luxury inlay work.
