lapis lazuli
I love the way it rolls off the tongue. Just thinking of the color brings me peace. The world needs more lapis lazuli. Anyone know if it has any significance(new age or old age)?

lapis lazuli
This stone has been mentioned frequently in my art history class. In Mesopotamian sculptures the eyes would not be carved in detail. Instead they would put lapis lazuli in to simulate a real eye.
