Beautiful Lapis Lazuli specimen from the well-known site of Sar-e-Sang/Badaghshan (Afghanistan),
Sar-e-Sang is one of the world's best-known sites for Lapis Lazuli and is famous for the high quality of the Clusters found there.
The lapis lazuli cluster measures approx. 6 x 5.5 cm and weighs approx. 105 g. The Lapis Lazuli has an intense dark blue tone, which forms an attractive contrast to the white matrix with Pyrite.
The name Lapis Lazuli is derived from the Latin terms "lapis" (stone) and lazulum (blue). Alternative spellings such as lapizlazuli, lapis lazuli or lapizlazulli are incorrect. Due to the long reputation of lapis lazuli, there are numerous synonyms. These include Azur d'Acre, Azurum Ultramarinum, Bleu d'Azur, Lapis Lazuli ultramarine, Lasurstein/Lazustein, Lazurium, Oltremare, Oriental blue, Outremer lapis, Pierre d'azur, Ultramarin genuine, Ultramar ino/verdadero, Ultramarine natural scythium.
