Admire the rich natural beauty of these genuine Lapis Lazuli stone beads, hand cut and polished by artisans in Afghanistan. Prized since antiquity for its remarkable deep blue color, lapis has been mined in Afghanistan for thousands of years and was traded across the ancient world for use in jewelry, decorative objects, and as a source of prized blue pigment. These substantial beads retain the wonderfully organic character of the natural stone, with irregular shapes and varying shades of royal blue, indigo, grey, and white, along with occasional golden-colored pyrite inclusions. Each bead measures approximately 17-27 x 14-20mm with a hole size of approximately 1-2mm, and each strand measures approximately 18" long. Beautiful for original jewelry designs or displayed as a decorative accent, every strand is unique and will naturally vary in shape, coloration, pattern, and inclusions.
