EGYPTIAN BLUE LAPIS:
The Egyptians appreciated Lapis Lazuli stone due to the associations they had between its dark blue color with the night of the skies and the gold pyrite flecks that reminded them of the stars. In other words, an image of the heavens.
They saw life in the deep blue color of water and the divine in the immense blue of the sky and they continuously used Lapis Lazuli to portray it all. Artists represented the Nile, the most important river of Ancient Egypt in blue. Blue was also the background color of the paintings portraying the Royal Toms in the Valley of the Kings and Queens, Was commonly used for Amulets, Statues, Furniture Inlay, Jewelry and much more.
