One of our favorite suggestions for using lapis lazuli tumbles in gemstone décor is to add them to a crystal or glass plate, bowl, vase, or other container. You can layer them or use them to surround figurines or other display pieces, too. With all of the colors and variation available in gemstone tumbles and chips, there is almost always a complementary or accent color that will suit your personal style.

Lapis Lazuli: What is It?

Lapis lazuli was originally the name for lazurite (not lazulite, that is yet another stone). Lazurite is quite rare. Most current pieces of lapis come from sulfur-rich Hauyne (and/or vladimirivanovite, afghanite, etc). Of course, there are inclusions such as pyrite and calcite. Each of the minerals listed that now make up lapis lazuli on the common market all come from the feldspathoid group. If you would like to learn more about these topics, this link is a great place to start.

Please Note:

  1. Sizes and weights are approximate. Dimension sizes can vary based on the way the rock is formed. We hand measure our pieces on the longest side. Please see the pictures in the listing.
  2. The colors may vary due to monitor and lighting differences.
  3. Please use your own judgment when allowing children to handle.
  4. Not suggested for use in animal habitats or fish tanks.
  5. UV Notes: For gemstones, 365nm is the best for UV lighting. Only some specimens illuminate under the other part of this spectrum (370-400nm). This is why some pictures are not as clear for our UV reactive pieces. Our current lights are at 395nm. For home use, the 395nm is less expensive, but in some cases, will need a zoomed beam on the flashlight style UV lights. If you do use a 365nm light, please take care to use eye protection.
