Lapis lazuli is a vivid blue metamorphic rock and a gemstone that has been prized for its intense color and historical significance for thousands of years.  It's composed of lazurite (for the blue color), calcite, sodalite, and pyrite. It is the presence of pyrite that causes the gold-colored flecks or veins in the stone.  Lapis lazuli has a moderate hardness, typically ranging from 5 to 5.5 on the Mohs scale.  High-quality lapis lazuli has been historically sourced from mines in Afghanistan; however, other deposits are found in countries such as Russia, Chile, Italy, and the United States.

Lapis lazuli has been used for various purposes throughout history. It has been highly prized for ornamental and decorative purposes, including as a gemstone in jewelry and art. The ancient Egyptians used lapis lazuli in the creation of jewelry, amulets, and cosmetics. The pigment ultramarine, derived from lapis lazuli, was highly valued by Renaissance painters.

Lapis lazuli is believed to promote self-awareness and mental clarity.
