Did you know Lapis Lazuli is the source of ultramarine, the most expensive blue pigment ever used in art? This stunning stone has captivated cultures for centuries. It was used in the background of the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci and by the Egyptians as a pigment for makeup. Known as the 'Stone of Kings,' Lapis symbolises wisdom and enlightenment. What’s your favourite Lapis fact? 💙💎 | Crystal Castle

Such a beautiful story from one of our lapis lazuli suppliers! 💙✨ He shares how Cleopatra adored lapis, wearing it as eyeshadow when it was worth more than gold. 👑 He also explained a key tip for spotting the real deal. Genuine lapis should have flecks of golden pyrite within it. If it's pure blue with no natural shimmer, it’s likely not the real thing! 🌟 Lapis has been treasured for centuries, and we love bringing you the best, most authentic pieces. Stay tuned for more stories! #lapislazuli
