113g Royal Blue Rough Lapis Lazuli – Afghanistan

Sourced directly from the legendary high-altitude deposits of Badakhshan, this 113g 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 a beautifully balanced, elongated shape spanning over 7 cm in length. Across its unpolished faces, a spectacular arrangement of bright, metallic golden Pyrite flecks catches the light 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.
