Frequently Asked Questions

Does lapis lazuli look better with gold or silver?

Lapis lazuli pairs well with both gold and sterling silver. For a more luxurious look, we recommend pairing blue lapis earrings with gold. The deep blue color of the stone is enhanced by the warm tones of gold, creating a high-end, luxurious appeal.

How to care for lapis lazuli earrings?

To care for lapis lazuli stone earrings, avoid exposing them to harsh chemicals and ultrasonic or steam cleaners. Use only a mild soap and wet lint-free cloth to gently rub the earrings clean. For deeper cleaning and a re-polish, you can send your KMJ pieces in for a professional touch-up by the artist.

Is there a specific symbolism associated with lapis lazuli in jewelry?

Lapis lazuli's rich blue symbolizes royalty, wisdom, truth, and spiritual enlightenment across cultures, from ancient civilizations like Egypt and Persia to modern times. Its intense color is believed to hold protective powers like a talisman and promote clarity of mind.

What makes lapis lazuli a desirable gemstone for high-end jewelry?

Lapis lazuli is revered for its intense, uniform, royal blue color with minimal calcite and sprinklings of golden pyrite. This makes it highly desirable for creating exclusive, high-end jewelry pieces.
