Lapis Lazuli Nugget Beads 10mm Blue Beads 15-1/2 Inch Strand

Gorgeous natural Lapis Lazuli nugget beads. These beads are fairly consistent in size with small variances. The size is perfect, not too large and not too small for your jewelry designs. The coloring is very predominantly blue with a good amount of pyrite. I am offering these beads in a larger and more cubed size as well.

Although I was told these beads are not dyed I believe that they are. Irregardless, they are beautiful.

The great majority of the world's Lapis Lazuli is mined in Afghanistan. Their president has just banned the export of this beautiful stone.

Approximately 10mm (hole to hole) x 6.5mm-8.5mm, hole 1.4mm
