Lapis-Lazuli .999 Fine Silver Bezel Pendant

Lapis Lazuli .999 Fine Silver Wire Twist Bezel Pendant

This enriching stone offers a dense scattering of golden pyrite, especially near the bottom, against a medium to dark blue background. Best worn with white and various shades of blue; but quite versatile, and many dark, bright, pastel and earth tone colors also wear well, especially black, grays, brown and beige/tan, and orange/coral hues. It is nicely worn with red, green, and yellow as well. A similar color of blue will blend, so should be avoided, also blue-green or turquoise, and some purple colors, as they tend to cause a contrast clash.  It wears well with most colors with some preference toward darker shades of clothing, especially black, brown, blue, green, purple, and burgundy. Artistic wire and bezel work, stone shape, scattered fine pyrite pattern against a deep blue giving an antique appearance offers appeal to naturalistic, artistic and purist views.
