A stretch bracelet of round, polished, opaque beads in deep royal blue, with golden flecks and grey-white patches. Some beads are mostly rich blue, while others are lighter, more mottled or more grey. That mix is typical of natural lapis. Lapis lazuli is a stone made up mostly of lazurite, calcite and pyrite, which explains the blue, the white patches and the gold sparkle. The grey-green beads on the lower edge show a lot of the lighter material.
