Lapis

Lapis contains several minerals – lazurite, grains of pyrite, calcite and mica. In its traditional deposits in Afghanistan, people have been mining it since ancient times. It used to be an ingredient for blue dye called ultramarine. Lapis catches one’s eye with its striking blue colour, which is influenced by lazurite mineral in its structure. The name lapis refers to Arabian word lazuli, which means blue.

Use: Our rough stones are a beautiful interior adornment – filling up a vase, fountain or a lamp with them creates an original design. In the exterior, they may be a perfect decoration of gardens. They are also suitable for mineralogist collections and exhibitions. Rough minerals may also be further processed, e.g. small crystals are ideal material for pendants.

About the product: To retain the standard colour and quality of the minerals, we carefully pick the best pieces and clean them. The minerals are sold in 1 and 2 kg bags, but we also offer a 25 kg package (carton box) for an advantageous price.
