# 36. LAPIS LAZULI & DICHROIC ART GLASS ROSARY
Recommended as a mens rosary but many women like it too
September birthstone rosary
A GRADE LAPIS IS EXTREMELY LIMITED. WHEN IT'S GONE, I CAN'T GET ANY MORE
7mm A grade Lapis Lazuli (deep royal blue like cobalt blue) and Dichroic Art glass (cobalt blue glass with blue/yellow metallic insets and white matrix), capped in Bali hand made Sterling Silver, tipped with smaller Lapis Lazuli. The 2 1/4" Deluxe Filigree Crucifix and 1" Lace Edge Miraculous Medal center complete the design. ALSO AVAILABLE WITH 9MM BLUE/BLACK OR BLUE/BLACK/SILVER RONDELLE DICHROIC GLASS.
Lapis Lazuli is a complex stone composed of 3 minerals: Lazurite (Royal to Navy blue), Pyrite (also known as "fool's gold"), and Calcite (usually white but may be yellow or gray). The proportion of these three minerals is part of what determines it's quality. Lazurite should be predominant and while large areas of Calcite or Pyrite detract from its value, small flecks or veins, particularly of Pyrite, often enhance its value. Since ancient times, Lapis Lazuli has been the stone of Royalty, perhaps best known for its use in the funeral mask of Egyptian Pharoah Tutahnkamun, it was also described as part of the breastplate of Aaron in the Old Testament. Lapis Lazuli is a recognized birthstone for both September and December.
