Now, if you're wondering what lapis is, get ready for an exciting story about this stunning gem. Lapis lazuli, also known as lapis, is a stone that comes from Afghanistan, a country far away. People have been digging it out of the ground for more than 6000 years! Long ago, when there were no cars or planes, lapis traveled to different places through something called the Silk Road. During a time called The Renaissance, lapis was really popular. It was the favorite color for the clothes of a special lady known as the Virgin Mary. Remember that famous painting called "Girl with Pearl Earring"? Well, the beautiful blue color in it is made from crushed lapis stone. Back then, lapis was more valuable than gold or silver! Even in modern times, lapis is used in paintings and jewelry. Due to new and improved ways of mining, we can find more lapis than before.
