| Description |
(public display, Cleveland Museum of Natural History, Cleveland, Ohio, USA) This attractive object is carved from lapis lazuli, a rare metamorphic rock dominated by a blue feldspathoid mineral called lazurite, (Na,Ca)8(AlSiO4)6(SO4,S,Cl)2 - sodium calcium chloro-sulfo-aluminosilicate-sulfate. The highest-quality lapis lazuil on Earth is from the Hindu Kush Mountains of Afghanistan. Other lapis occurrences are Chile and Russia. |
