Lapis Lazuli Gemstones

About Lapis Lazuli

Lapis lazuli is an opaque gemstone that is not a single mineral but mainly composed of the royal blue mineral lazurite, with other minerals including white calcite and sparkling gold specks of pyrite. Lapis is a popular gemstone among jewellers due to its intense indigo/blue colouring, although it can range from light greenish blue to royal blue. The name means 'blue stone' in Latin and is mined in northeast Afghanistan and Pakistan. It measures 5-6 on the Mohs hardness scale.

Jewellery Making With Lapis Lazuli

Lapis lazuli is such a popular gemstone, although care should be given when using lapis lazuli in jewellery designs as it is a soft stone and can easily chip or get damaged.

At Kernowcraft, we have a range of affordable lapis gemstones including cabochons in a range of sizes and shapes such as round, oval, teardrop, marquise and rectangle. You'll also find lapis faceted stones, lapis round beads, lapis gemstone donuts, lapis half drilled beads, lapis top drilled teardrop beads, lapis rondelle beads, lapis chip beads and limited edition, one-off stones for statement pieces.

Shop our range of jewellery settings for cabochons and faceted stones or our range of beading threads and jewellery findings to get making! We also have an extensive range of silversmithing supplies for all your needs. Explore our beginner's jewellery making kits with step by step instructions for inspiration or check out our jewellery making tutorials on silversmithing, wire-wrapping, beading, stone setting, texturing and more.
