Lapis Lazuli Healing Properties
Lapis Lazuli Stones Healing Properties
The name “lapis lazuli” means “blue stone.” The gorgeous blue color of lapis lazuli has attracted the attention of artists for thousands of years. Ancient Egyptians used it to create blue cosmetics. In the Renaissance, painters ground the stone to make ultramarine, a blue pigment used for skies and seas.
In good qualities, with intense, deep blue color, lapis is rare, so pieces set with the gem can vary widely in price from luxurious to quite inexpensive. Etymologically, lapis has also been very useful. It comes from the Latin word for “stone” and lazuli comes from the Latin word lazulum.
