Frequently Asked Questions
What is Lapis Lazuli made of?
Lapis Lazuli is a natural stone made mainly of the mineral lazurite, and it often has bits of white calcite and metallic gold‑colored pyrite inside it, which are normal features of real stones.
How can I tell if my Lapis Lazuli is real?
Real Lapis Lazuli usually has a deep uneven blue color, visible pyrite flecks, and sometimes white calcite. If the color looks too perfect, uniform, or shiny, it could be dyed or fake.
Why does Lapis Lazuli sometimes have white or gold spots?
The gold‑looking spots are tiny pieces of pyrite, and the white patches are calcite. Both are natural parts of genuine Lapis Lazuli and show the stone formed in nature.
Can dyed stones still be called Lapis Lazuli?
Some low‑quality stones are dyed to look more blue, but dyed stones are not considered natural Lapis Lazuli and may lose color over time.
Is rough Lapis Lazuli good for jewelry or decoration?
Yes, rough Lapis Lazuli can be cut, shaped, or polished to make jewelry like pendants and beads, or it can be used for decoration as a raw crystal piece.
