Lapis Lazuli Disc Necklace, Afghanistan - C
£75.00
A striking necklace comprising 7 natural lapis lazuli discs strung with small lapis lazuli beads on complementary blue thread. Each disc contains some or all of these colours/inclusions - azure blue (lazurite), ivory (calcite) and flecks of gold (pyrite) - simply beautiful, especially when light hits them. Separating the discs are lovely small lapis beads which are knotted at the end to prevent them moving. This necklace is very attractive.
