The Silk Road Pendant

Lapis lazuli has been mined in the mountains of Afghanistan for over 9,000 years, traded along the Silk Road to Egypt, Rome, and beyond. The legendary blue of lapis lazuli lined pharaohs’ tombs and pigmented the most sacred works of Renaissance masters. The Silk Road Pendant sets an Afghan lapis lazuli cabochon in an oval bezel of 18kt matte gold. Sold as a pendant. Wear on any leather cord or gold chain. Multi-strand leather cords in brown, olive, and black all available separately.
