Lapis lazuli necklaces are decorated with lapis lazuli, a deep blue precious stone. They may be used with gold or silver chains, although silver and white gold are preferred because they better bring out the stone’s color. Some are made of strung lapis lazuli beads, while others have individually set stones or pendants.
Color: Choose a lapis lazuli necklace with a shiny deep blue shade. These are the most valuable and will keep their luster and color longer. Solid colors are also valuable, although streaks and marks may also make them attractive.
Mounting: If you are buying a pendant or accented chain, make sure the lapis lazuli beads are firmly mounted. Look for one with a frame or prong mount for a more secure hold. For beaded necklaces, look for double-strand strings to better support the weight of the beads.
