Rough Lapis Lazuli Specimen – Afghanistan

A hand-selected rough Lapis Lazuli specimen sourced directly from Afghanistan, one of the world's most celebrated mineral localities. This natural, unpolished piece showcases the characteristic deep blue of lazurite with natural surface texture, matrix inclusions, and the authentic geological character that makes Afghan Lapis the global benchmark for collector-quality specimens.

Authentic Afghan Lapis Lazuli

Afghanistan has been the world's primary source of Lapis Lazuli for over 6,000 years. The intense blue colour, driven by high lazurite concentration, combined with natural pyrite and calcite inclusions, creates a specimen of enduring beauty and collector value. Each piece is unique — no two are alike in form, colour distribution, or matrix character.
