The lapis lazuli is lighter, more like sodalite ( which I also love .). They are well made. Their beauty is in the simplicity of design, letting the stones take center stage. Perfect with jeans. They are not heavy. I will buy from this artist again.
The detail on the earrings is exquisite, the bone faces are so beautiful and serene. I bought this as a gift for a friend who is a professional artist; she loved them. The truth is, I really want them for myself!!!
