2kg Royal Blue Rough Lapis Lazuli – Badakhshan, Afghanistan

Sourced directly from the legendary high-altitude deposits of Badakhshan, this massive 2kg rough specimen represents the absolute highest standard of royal blue color purity available in this large weight class. The fine-grained, premium lazurite matrix carries an incredibly deep, uniform blue tone, remarkably clean and virtually untouched by the heavy white calcite veins that often compromise larger blocks.

Kept entirely in its natural, unpolished state, the specimen boasts an expansive, towering face measuring 16.0 cm by 11.8 cm. Across these wide, raw surfaces, a spectacular constellation of bright, metallic golden Pyrite clusters and broad veins sweeps across the stone, catching the light brilliantly as it is viewed from different angles. With its massive 9.8 cm thickness and solid, blocky shape, this piece has an incredible three-dimensional presence that makes it a true centerpiece for high-end mineral collections, luxury decor, or as rare, high-volume rough for master lapidaries carving large sculptures, spheres, or luxury bowls.
