Lapis Lazuli Bangle — Solid Carved Wisdom Bracelet

This Lapis Lazuli bangle is carved from a single solid piece of stone, an eye-catching, substantial band with a versatile 1.1 inch opening that lets you slide it easily onto the wrist. It is bold enough to be the centrepiece of an outfit, yet the deep, even blue keeps it feeling grounded rather than flashy.

So why has lapis been treasured for so long? Since ancient Egypt it has been worn by royalty, priests, and artists as a stone of wisdom, truth, and spiritual insight. It is closely tied to the throat chakra, said to help you express your truth clearly, and many people wear it specifically to support that sense of deep inner knowing. Bangles carved from a single piece rather than strung from beads are a more traditional, and often more durable, way to wear a stone this substantial.

Wearing your bangle

Lapis is a relatively soft stone, so it is worth taking off before swimming, heavy activity, or anything involving a hard knock. Store it apart from harder jewellery to avoid scratches, and clean it gently with a soft, dry cloth rather than soap or ultrasonic cleaners.
