A beautiful piece of lapis hand set in a sterling silver bezel in Nepal, hangs from asymmetrical cable chains with a clasp in the front to adjust to your desired length.  This necklace has a slightly more industrial look that balances well with the softness of the hand carved stone.. 

Lapis Lazuli is believed to bond relationships of love and friendship, encourage creativity, release stress and bring deep inner peace.  Its deep blue color can often have shimmering specs of pyrite that formed within the stone.  I use lapis that is hand carved in Afghanistan with bold cuts and a matte finish as well as more highly faceted and polished stones hand cut in India.

Pendant is 1 ½”  long and hangs from sturdy chain measuring 17 ½” and is finished with a 9mm lobster claw clasp.  All metal is oxidized sterling silver.
