An impressive lapis lazuli heart in vivid royal blue, with fine white calcite veining across the surface and golden flecks of pyrite that catch the light. The classic heart silhouette is well-formed with a smooth, rounded dome that shows off the natural color and mineral inclusions of this Afghan lapis lazuli.
Mined in Afghanistan and completely untreated, this lapis lazuli heart is ready for setting in a pendant, brooch, or statement ring. The deep blue color with natural pyrite inclusions is the hallmark of genuine Afghan lapis lazuli, prized by jewelers for centuries.

About lapis lazuli
Lapis lazuli is a rock, not a single mineral: blue lazurite with white calcite and golden flecks of pyrite. At 5 to 5.5 on the Mohs scale it scratches more easily than most gems.
Cleaning
Wipe it with a soft cloth dampened in lukewarm water and dry it at once. Do not soak it or leave it in water. Skip ultrasonic and steam cleaners: it is a porous rock that can crack along its calcite veins. Keep it away from acids and household cleaners, which attack its calcite.
Wear and storage
Display it on a stand or a soft cloth so it cannot roll or knock against harder stones, and store it wrapped in a soft cloth. Below 7 on the Mohs scale, it can be scratched even by household dust, which contains quartz, so dust it gently.
Scale
