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

Imagine holding a piece of the deep evening sky in the palm of your hand, a pair of blue lapiss that seem to hold quiet stories and whispered promises. At The Natural Gemstone Company we source gemstones that create moments, and these cushion shape lapiss are no exception. Weighing 3.62 carats and 3.91 carats respectively, each stone has been shaped into a tablet cut that lays flat against the skin, inviting a touch and a second look. The dimensions are 14.88 by 12.98 by 1.78 millimeters for the smaller stone, and 15.04 by 13.02 by 1.69 millimeters for the companion, sizes that feel substantial, yet elegant, when set into a design. Their vivid color intensity is immediate, the kind of blue that makes someone smile, pause, and remember. These stones are opaque, and their surface reflects the care of an excellent polish, a finish that turns light into a soft, luxurious sheen rather than a glare. When you choose this pair from The Natural Gemstone Company you are choosing unenhanced, natural beauty, a rare gift from the earth that needs no alteration to shine.

Look closely and you will see what makes these lapiss feel alive, subtle variations and natural character that tell of their origin in Afghanistan, a land known for producing some of the finest blue lapiss in the world. These are not factory made homogenous pieces, they carry the fingerprint of geology, a tapestry of tone that ranges within vivid blue, and tiny, organic details that add depth and soul. The tablet cut enhances the richness of color, presenting a broad, even face that showcases the blue in all its glory. The excellent polish allows fingertip contact without distraction, making these stones comfortable for daily wear or for those special evenings when a person wants to feel extraordinary. Because these lapiss are unenhanced, you are witnessing nature in its original voice, a gem as honest as it is beautiful, a true expression of the land and time that formed it. As someone who cares about authenticity, you will appreciate the value of genuine, untreated gemstones and the quiet confidence they bring to any piece.

Think about the moments you can create with this matched pair, a pair that feels destined to become part of a love story, a celebration, or a cherished memory. Picture them as a pair of refined earrings, dropping gently from lobes, catching candlelight at a dinner where vows are exchanged, or worn as studs for a professional look that carries warmth. Envision one set into a pendant and the other into a matching ring for someone who loves symmetry and meaning, or have both set into a bespoke bracelet that speaks of harmony and balance. Designers will find the cushion shape and tablet cut extremely versatile, perfect for modern settings that favor clean lines and bold color, or for vintage inspired pieces that highlight natural texture. Because the stones are closely matched in size and depth, they provide a balanced canvas for creativity, encouraging a custom setting that feels like it was made for the wearer from the first sketch. Gifts made with intention become keepsakes, and these lapiss have the power to transform an ordinary day into a memory that lasts.

Choosing gems is as much about provenance as it is about appearance, and these lapiss come with a story that enhances their emotional value, they originate in Afghanistan, a storied source of blue lapiss that has been prized for centuries for its striking color. At The Natural Gemstone Company we honor that heritage by offering gemstones that are responsibly sourced and honestly presented, unenhanced and in their natural state. The combination of vivid color intensity, tablet cut, and excellent polish means that these stones arrive ready for the jeweler or the custom design artist, and ready to become an heirloom. There is something profoundly comforting about working with materials that have not been altered, that bear the hand of nature and the touch of skilled artisans, rather than chemical interventions.
