#LapisLazuli has been beloved for its intense #DeepBlue color, since the #NeolithicPeriod. #Lapis was name-checked in the #EpicOfGilgamesh, around 1750 BC. Later, it comprised #Tutankhamun’s eyebrows, on his #DeathMask (c.1332 BC); was used as #Eyeshadow by #Cleopatra (c. 30 BC); and was ground into the lavish pigment #Ultramarine, used by #JohannesVermeer in his 1665 #Tronie #GirlWithAPearlEarring. Needless to say, to a longtime #LapisLover, today’s #WearableProzac - this #RoughLapisLazuli #Collar from @CoomiJewels' #Antiquity collection; with its #20KGold and #RoseCutDiamond detailing, and #StoneAge references - was major! #GetIntoIt #Coomi #StoneOfTheAges #TheBlueStone #PreciousJewelry #Couture #Luxury (at New York, New York)
