Gorgeous necklace, inspired by the ancient Egyptian god Osiris and the significance of lapis lazuli and malachite in Egyptian culture. Osiris, the god of the afterlife and regeneration, was often associated with deep blue and green tones. Lapis lazuli was treasured in ancient Egypt for its resemblance to the night sky and was used in amulets, ceremonial jewelry, and masks due to its symbolic connection to the heavens and spiritual awareness. Malachite, with its vivid green hue, represented growth, life, and protection and was often used as a protective stone.

The Osiris lapis lazuli hinge necklace takes its inspiration from the ancient Egyptian god Osiris. It also honors the role of lapis lazuli and malachite in Egyptian culture.
Osiris was the god of the afterlife and regeneration, and Egyptians often linked him with deep blue and green tones. They also treasured lapis lazuli because it resembled the night sky. So they used it in amulets, ceremonial jewelry and masks, as a link to the heavens. Malachite, in turn, traditionally stood for growth, life and protection.
Together, then, the two stones carry deep symbolic value. That is why many see in them qualities of protection, renewal and spiritual wisdom.
We handcraft the necklace in 950 sterling silver and inlay it with natural lapis lazuli. Graduated square and rectangular segments form the collar. Then our trademark hinges bind them together. As a result, the piece is flexible and a dream to wear.
In addition, a solid 950 sterling silver clasp with a security hook keeps it safely in place. The necklace measures 17.5 inches long, and it is available in all our stone combinations. For example, wear it with a simple black dress to let the colors stand out.
All our lapis lazuli is of exceptional grade and completely natural. We are one of the few jewelers who never use synthetic stones and never dye our lapis to mask poor quality – practices that are all too common, as much of the lapis lazuli sold today is dyed, reconstituted or imitation stone. That is our difference.
