Lapis Lazuli, Turquoise, and Coral .925 Sterling Silver Pendant

Among the books, decks, and stones on 14th Street is this pendant: Lapis Lazuli, Turquoise, and Coral .925 Sterling Silver Pendant (shop SKU EGHSP6).

Lapis lazuli is a deep-blue rock made mostly of lazurite, often flecked with golden pyrite. Afghanistan has been a classic source since antiquity. In crystal traditions, lapis is associated with truth and inner vision. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim.

Sterling silver is 92.5% silver, often stamped .925; like all silver, it can tarnish over time and can be brightened with a soft polishing cloth. Store jewelry dry and away from lotions, perfume, and harsh cleaners to keep it looking its best.
