Experience the exclusivity of our unique Lapis & branch coral necklace.
The ancient civilisations of Mesopotamia, Egypt, China, Greece, and Rome treasured Lapis. The three major minerals that comprise lapis are lazurite, calcite, and pyrite. The rock can also contain lesser amounts of diopside, amphibole, feldspar, or mica. Lazurite is the ingredient responsible for producing the gem’s most prized colour—bright royal blue. Golden flecks of pyrite create a sparkle in lapis lazuli. These full round Lapis beads graduate from 6.5mm down to 3.5mm, a perfect vibrant blue with just the right amount of golden veins.
Our Lapis & branch coral necklace is a versatile piece that can be a stunning addition to any outfit. Whether you choose the style with additional gold beads or the one alternating with bunches of branch coral, it’s sure to make a statement.
Because gemstones are a lifetime passion, David & Nicola have both studied at the internationally recognised Gem-A and have passed the prestigious DGA. An extensive stock of beautiful diamonds, sapphires, rubies & emeralds is available. Importantly, we will gladly show you a selection. Simultaneously, discuss and explain the technical and aesthetic considerations. Without a doubt, the design & stone you choose will be unique and beautiful. It is an ongoing delight designed to suit your lifestyle: a perfect birthday, anniversary or Christmas present.
