Rare and radiant, these 10 mm lapis lazuli gold bead earrings feature extremely rare 10 mm extra blue lapis lazuli beads. Solid 18K gold posts and closures hold each bead securely, while the large round shape glows with saturated blue.

Beads of this size and color are hard to find. So we select only the finest stone for them and match each pair for size and color intensity. The polished surface gives the beads a soft, velvety sheen that suits the warm gold.

Extra blue lapis lazuli was treasured by the ancient Egyptians and Mesopotamians. Later, painters ground it into ultramarine, the most precious pigment of the Renaissance. Wearing it today still carries a little of that history.

Because the design is simple, these earrings move easily from day to evening. Wear them with a white shirt at the office, or with a black dress for a dinner. They also frame the face nicely when you wear your hair up.

These 10 mm lapis lazuli gold bead earrings make a luxurious gift for someone who loves classic, timeless jewelry. They are especially meaningful for a milestone birthday or an anniversary.
