№ 415 Lapis
This new necklace design features a variety of lapis in an asymmetrical design with silver spacers from the Hilltribe in Thailand sprinkled throughout.
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.
This necklace measures 18” long and is strung on Softflex - a sturdy flexible nylon coated stainless steel cord. Necklace is finished with a 13mm lobster claw clasp and all findings used are oxidized sterling silver.
