Lapis Lazuli Rough Specimen – Badakhshan

Authentic Geological Beauty and Rich Natural Saturation Sourced directly from the legendary deposits of Badakhshan, this 393g 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.

The specimen features an impressive, elongated silhouette measuring 12.3 cm by 6.4 cm across, giving it a commanding visual presence on a gallery shelf. What makes this piece exceptional is its significant 5.0 cm depth. This thick, blocky 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 Pyrite 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 carving blocks, or as a luxury earth-born accent on a desk.
