4.50 Ct.Tw.Total Carat Weight Lapis Pair from Afghanistan

If you have been searching for a pair of gemstones that resolves the challenge of finding both beauty and reliability, this matched pair of lapiss from The Natural Gemstone Company answers that need with confidence and clarity. Many customers come to us looking for a dependable pair for earrings, a statement ring, or a collector grade matched set, and they want natural color and honest origin without enhancement. These two cushion shape blue lapiss, weighing 2.18 carats and 2.32 carats respectively, provide a vivid, saturated blue that speaks to those priorities, while the tablet cut and excellent polish give each gem a refined, contemporary presence. For someone hoping to propose with a unique piece, or for the collector seeking a distinguished specimen, these stones end the search because they combine authentic, unenhanced material with precise cutting and a balanced match in size and tone.

Let me give you the precise details that matter when you are making a confident purchase decision, because specifications equal trust. The pair measures 10.17 by 8.16 by 2.49 millimeters for the 2.18 carat stone, and 10.01 by 8.10 by 2.75 millimeters for the 2.32 carat stone, each cut in a cushion outline with a tablet profile that emphasizes the face up color while providing a stable surface for secure setting. The finish is an excellent polish that enhances the vivid color intensity, giving the deep blue a lively, even appearance across each face. These stones are naturally opaque, unheated and untreated, with no enhancement, and their origin is Afghanistan, a source known for producing some of the most prized lapis material in the world. Because they are a matched pair, their slight differences in cut and depth serve to harmonize rather than distract, making them ideal for balanced earring pairs, cufflinks, or matched accents in a custom jewelry commission.

Imagine these lapiss set in a bespoke pair of bezel set earrings, or as the central matched stones in a his and hers signet or cufflink set, or even as the cornerstone for a unique engagement ring for someone who wants something beyond the usual. The tablet cut gives these stones a contemporary, low profile that sits comfortably against the skin, and the cushion outline is timeless enough to suit vintage, modern, or minimalist design directions. If you are a collector seeking genuine Afghan lapis with strong color and artisanal cutting, these stones are a fine acquisition that will complement a cabinet of rarities or sit beautifully in a display with provenance documented. At The Natural Gemstone Company we take pride in pairing stones that work together visually and physically, and we can provide additional high resolution images, recommendations for metal and setting styles that will best display the vivid blue, and guidance on how to protect and care for opaque gemstones so they retain their polish and sheen over many years.

When you are ready to move forward, we are here to assist every step of the way, from confirming availability and sending tailored photographs to arranging secure shipping and documentation that records weight, dimensions, cut style, enhancement status, and origin. These lapiss, with combined qualities of vivid color intensity, thoughtful tablet cutting, and no enhancement, are designed to meet the needs of customers who will not compromise on authenticity, appearance, or matching quality. Allow The Natural Gemstone Company to guide your selection, and rest assured that this pair closes the search for a natural, attractive, and versatile matched duo that can be turned into an heirloom, a signature piece, or a proud addition to a curated collection.
