Afghanistan Grade A Lapis Lazuli Bracelet – Faceted Beads 3 to 4mm

This elastic Afghanistan lapis lazuli bracelet is made of small faceted beads measuring approximately 3 to 4mm. Its deep blue shades and fine facets give it a luminous, elegant and refined appearance.

Originally from Afghanistan, this bracelet is made of fine faceted beads of Grade A lapis lazuli. This ornamental rock is prized for its blue tones, sometimes accompanied by white calcite areas or small golden pyrite inclusions.

The facets cut into the surface of the beads delicately catch the light and bring a subtle sparkle to the jewelry. Their diameter of approximately 3 to 4 mm gives the bracelet a delicate, colorful and easy-to-wear everyday look.

Thanks to its elastic mounting, the bracelet is easy to put on. Its length of approximately 17 to 18 cm is suitable for wrists measuring approximately 16 to 18 cm. It can be worn alone or combined with other natural stone bracelets.

Purification, recharging, and maintenance

As lapis lazuli may contain calcite and pyrite, prioritize purification without immersion by fumigation, sound vibrations, or placing it on a flower of life.

To recharge it, place the bracelet in soft moonlight or a few hours near a cluster of rock crystal. Avoid salt, prolonged water exposure, acidic products, and intense sun exposure.

To preserve the small faceted beads and the elastic thread, avoid chemicals, perfume, swimming, friction, and shocks. Remove the bracelet before showering or engaging in sports activities.
