Robert acquired several pieces of Lapis Lazuli mined at the once-famed Blue Wrinkle Mine near Crested Butte, Colorado.  He cut several into various size Cabochons including this 26x21mm rectangular shaped piece.  We set it in a cinch-style Sterling Silver Pendant.  This Lapis is uniquely different from the Afghanistan Lapis which contains significantly more Pyrite (Fools Gold) and other dark particles.
