Leather Bracelet with Lapis Lazuli

Beautiful Lapis Lazuli beads make up this pretty leather wrapped bracelet. I used white leather with matching blue silk thread and a Hill Tribes sterling silver button for this bracelet. The bracelet is adjustable 7.5" or 8.5" depending on which button hole you use. Lapis lazuli, or lapis for short, is a deep-blue metamorphic rock used as a semi-precious stone that has been prized since antiquity for its intense color. As early as the 7th millennium BCE, lapis lazuli was mined in the Sar-i Sang mines, in Shortugai, and in other mines in Badakhshan province in northeast Afghanistan. A stone of wisdom, intuition, and truth, Lapis Lazuli is a powerful crystal for anyone seeking to deepen their connection to self. The bracelet comes in a box ready for gift giving.
