Lapis lazuli Native American jewelry pairs the deep, celestial blue of this ancient gemstone with sterling silverwork in the Southwestern tradition, creating pieces of extraordinary richness and visual depth. Lapis lazuli has been treasured by civilizations worldwide for thousands of years, and its deep blue color flecked with golden pyrite inclusions has made it a prized material in Southwestern jewelry. Our collection features lapis lazuli set in sterling silver by silversmiths who appreciate the stone's intense color and smooth polishing qualities. The deep blue of lapis creates a dramatic complement to turquoise, and the two stones are frequently used together in multi-stone designs that evoke the colors of the Southwestern sky. Zuni inlay artists particularly favor lapis for its ability to be cut into precise geometric shapes, while Navajo silversmiths often showcase larger lapis cabochons in bold pendant and ring designs. Our lapis pieces highlight the natural beauty of this remarkable stone within the long tradition of Southwestern jewelry making.
