 DENIM LAPIS: is an opaque rock that mainly consists of diopside and lazurite. It came into being millions of years ago during the metamorphosis of lime to marble. "Lapis" is the Latin word for "stone" and "Lazuli" from the Arabic word "azula", meaning "blue". Denim Lapis is the trade name for the paler blue color phase of Lapis Lazuli, whose denim color has only become popular in recent years. Denim Lapis gets its lighter blue color from its mixture of other minerals such as white calcite, occasionally speckled with yellow iron pyrites. Denim Lapis is generally not as expensive as Lapis Lazuli because it is considered a lower grade of the more popular dark blue Lapis color.

Lapis is regarded by many people around the world as the stone of friendship and truth. The blue stone is said to encourage harmony in relationships and help its wearer to be authentic and express one’s feelings and opinions openly.
