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.
These earrings are absolutely beautiful! They are a perfect size and comfortable to wear. The iolite stones are much softer than in the picture, more like a soft lavender blue.
