                Story

 Let's discuss the story of lapis lazuli. 

 Historians believe that there is a link between humans and lapis lazuli stretches them back more than 6500 years. The gem was found by the ancient civilizations of Mesopotamia, Egypt, China Greecr and Rome. They valued it for it's high coloured or vivid and they prized it as much as thry prized the other blue gem like sapphire and turquoise. 

The sheer mountain of 17000 feet high were rised there, then humans make their  way to seek the only thing the tresure of Lapis lazuli

The same was true as far back as 700 BC, when the region was part of a country known as Bactria. The lapis mines that were producing that time, are still producing today. In fact they are known as  world's oldest commercial gemstone. 

For thousands of years, lapis has been fashioned to show off its rich, dark color. Typically, lapis used in jewelry has been cut into cabochons, beads, inlays, and tablets. 

But lapis lazuli’s use has never been limited to  jewellery alone. It’s also a popular carving material. In it's history, lapis has been fashioned into practical objects, including game boards, bowls, dagger handles, hair combs, and amulets.
