Lapis Lazuli Rune for Travel

Description

For anyone always on the move, our lapis lazuli travel rune makes a meaningful companion. According to rune tradition, this symbol guards all travelers and protects us along our path in life.

The sign is a bind rune, which means it combines several runes into one. The craftsmen of old laid the runes over each other to create a single character. Tradition says this concentrates the power of the individual runes into a stronger force.

Bind runes are ancient, and they probably appeared almost as soon as people used runes as an alphabet. Interestingly, you do not need to translate the word or spell into Old Norse, or even into German, so the symbol speaks to anyone.

We interpreted this ancient symbol in solid 950 sterling silver, then inlaid it with lapis lazuli and turquoise. The deep blue and bright turquoise recall sea and sky, which suits a charm devoted to journeys. Because it is solid silver, it also stands up well to life on the road.

The lapis lazuli travel rune comes in 4 different sizes. You can also add a chain or silk cord to complete the ensemble. It makes a thoughtful gift for a student going abroad, a frequent flyer or a friend who is moving to a new city.

Exceptional, completely natural lapis lazuli

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.
