1.9" Double Terminated Lapis Lazuli Point Pendant – Gold Vermeil

Double Terminated Lapis Lazuli Point Pendant – Gold Vermeil

A long pencil point of royal blue lapis, pointed at both ends, flecked with gold, and capped in gold. If a pharaoh and a night sky had a baby, it would look like this.

People have treasured lapis lazuli for more than 6,500 years. It was prized in Mesopotamia, Egypt, China, Greece, and Rome, and inlaid into King Tutankhamun's death mask. Egyptians saw it as a symbol of the night sky, with its golden pyrite flecks as the stars, and legend says Cleopatra wore it ground into eyeshadow. Later, Renaissance painters crushed it into ultramarine, a blue so precious it was saved for the most important figures in a painting. In short, lapis has always been the VIP of the stone world.

Lapis is associated with wisdom, truth, courage, friendship, and royalty, and it has long been worn to ward off evil. It's linked to the third eye chakra for intuition, awareness, focus, and imagination. Wear it when you need to speak your truth, trust your gut, or remind everyone who's royalty around here.

Because this point is double-terminated, with a point at each end, it's believed to let energy flow in both directions: drawing in what you need and sending out what you don't. It's a balanced little conduit you can wear over your heart.

The lapis is set in gold vermeil, a thick layer of gold over solid 925 sterling silver, which echoes those golden flecks perfectly.
