The pendant is made of Lapis Lazuli, a semi-precious gemstone that is wrapped in solid copper wire.
This stone has been used for centuries as a gemstone, sculpting material, and pigment. Lapis lazuli has been associated with royalty, strength, courage, wisdom, intellect, friendship, and truth since ancient times. It was believed to ward off evil when worn.
The copper wire may naturally darken as it ages, but it can be cleaned with a jewelry polishing cloth if needed. The pendant's back and size comparison with a ruler are shown in the photos included.
