Description

Lapis Lazuli Free-Form Sculpture
Afghanistan

This striking free-form sculpture is fashioned from a substantial slab of Afghanistan Lapis lazuli, renowned for its intense royal blue hue and scattered flecks of golden Pyrite. Expertly polished on all sides, the piece reveals the natural depth, saturation, and mineral inclusions that characterize top-quality Lapis from this historic source. With its clean, linear silhouette and rich coloration, the sculpture serves as a compelling decorative object, whether placed horizontally or vertically. It is presented on a removable wooden base, offering stability and a refined contrast to the vivid stone.
Measurements: 18.00 x 8.00 x 1.50 inches (45.72 x 20.32 x 3.81 cm)

Provenance: Property of a Distinguished Southern California Collector
