This Lapis Lazuli necklace is 17 inches long. I used all 4mm round beads, Delica Glass spacer beads and a Sterling Silver round toggle clasp.

Lapis is said to help us speak our truth. It's associated with the throat chakra, as are all cobalt blue gems. charmsoflight.com says, "A stone of protection that may be worn to guard against psychic attacks, Lapis Lazuli quickly releases stress, bringing deep peace. It brings harmony and deep inner self-knowledge. Encourages self-awareness, allows self-expression and reveals inner truth, providing qualities of honesty, compassion and morality to the personality. Stimulates objectivity, clarity and encourages creativity. Lapis Lazuli assists to confront and speak one’s truth and inspires confidence. It bonds relationships, aiding in expression of feelings and emotions.

Lapis Lazuli boosts the immune system, purifies blood, lowers blood pressure, cooling and soothing areas of inflammation. It alleviates insomnia and vertigo, and overcomes depression. Lapis Lazuli benefits the respiratory and nervous systems and the throat, vocal cords, and thyroid, cleanses organs, bone marrow and thymus."

This is a great everyday necklace that can be worn alone, or stacked with your other favorite necklaces!
