Lapis Lazuli is a beautiful and iconic semi-precious stone from Afghanistan. These beautiful stones have come from the mines in the Kokcha valley, in North Eastern Afghanistan. These mines have been producing high grade gemstones almost continually for 6000 years. Lapis Lazuli is a metamorphic rock containing lazurite. Lapis Lazuli also frequently contains specks of iron pyrites and calcite. It was said that the deep blue of Lapis Lazuli represents the night sky, with the tiny flecks and flashes of pyrite within it representing the sparkling stars. The name Lapis derives from Latin word lapis meaning stone. While Lazuli derives from the Persian word lazhward meaning blue.
