History of Lapis Lazuli

The Nereide Lapislazzuli, with its deep blue symbolizing nobility and spirituality, reflects the legacy of the legendary lapis lazuli, a mineral with centuries of history. In the Middle Ages, Venice became the primary port for lapis lazuli from Afghan mines. This precious mineral was used in sacred art to create ultramarine, a blue pigment famed for its intensity. The trade of lapis lazuli solidified Venice’s cultural and economic influence, enriching its artistic heritage and establishing it as a hub of history and mysticism.
