1395-99 + GROUND LAPIS FOR CURES ... During the middle ages, a pinch of ground Lapiz was given as a medicinal cure for some diseases. The ancients called it a name that meant 'delight'. And it was considered to ward off evil. Lapiz was known by the ancients as the 'Stone of Heaven"and the early Egyptians believed it symbolized the 'all embracing night sky.' We are using a rare faceted Lapiz that has small flecks of pyrite. And is considered a wonderful and highly prized Lapiz stone. Our Paters are hammered, hand made silver beads. ROSARY
