Silver & natural undyed lapis lazuli earrings - NEW

Regular price €99.00 Sale

Pretty 925 silver earrings set with genuine natural lapis lazuli, untinted and featuring an unmistakable blue. 

Contemporary silver design with a raw look that gives them a lot of character.

It is worth noting that these stones are often artificially dyed to appear bluer and feign superior quality. 

These are of the finest quality and come from Burma.

For lovers of jewelry that is simple, natural, and striking all at once.

The name of the stone is composed of the Latin words “lapis” (meaning “stone”) and “lazuli” (meaning “azure”). The term lazuli comes from the Persian lâdjaward, which itself is derived from the Sanskrit “raja farta”, meaning “king’s portion” (and indicating the almost sacred value attributed to this mineral).

The Persian term became then lazulum in Latin. Literally, lapis lazuli is therefore “the azure stone”.
