well, lapis is pretty solid, but as i hold it up to a window, i think i do see more "layers of color". I am going to list a LABRODITE bracelet for you.... It is more translucent. It is also sterling silver plated. Laborodite is one of my top three favs!
I also like the energy of the stones open to the skin. (That may seem odd to some people, but once you experience the energy of stones and crystals, you can't help but be particular) Looking forward to seeing the new bracelet...that has recently become one of my new favorite stones. BF just won a necklace like that for me yesterday! :)
that is awesome. i just got home from my dads. he is moving out of our childhood home of 35 years. lots of stuff to go through and even more to list!! I will set up to take pics later tonight. the listing should be up in the morning. thx!!! :)
