Colour and Clarity: In our opinion, the lapis lazuli is opaque, of bright blue colour, with pyrite matrix and a few calcite inclusions, typical visual characteristics for natural lapis lazuli. Rock crystal is clear with minor natural inclusions, not noticeable to naked eyes. Diamonds together weighing approximately 2.60cts, are about H to J colours, mostly VS clarity. Signed and numbered.
