Amazon Collection Sterling Silver 4mm Lapis Lazuli Bead Bracelet, 7.5"

Small polished rounds of blue lapis make up this striking beaded bracelet. The 7 1/2-inch bracelet features 4mm beads and closes with a sterling silver lobster claw. Lapis is an opaque blue semiprecious stone with golden inclusions. In powdered form, this ancient stone provided the radiant ultramarine color used by the Old Masters to paint their Madonnas. It's been called both a holy stone and a friendship stone. An old Persian legend even credits it with giving the sky its blue color, since the earth was said to be resting against a huge slab of lapis. This pretty bracelet will complement plenty of outfits, and looks perfect with a crisp white shirt and a pair of denim jeans.
