Buying and Polishing Lapis Lazuli From Afghanistan by GIA. What is lapis lazuli and how does one buy and polish it? In this video, Sam Naseri discusses lapis lazuli value factors to consider when buying rough stone. He also discusses lapis lazuli properties, and how rough gem material from Afghanistan is polished. Because lapis lazuli is a hard material, it is not difficult to polish with the right equipment and right polisher. Naseri shows examples of lapis and addresses why many believe the material in Afghanistan mines is higher quality than mines in other locations.

MINECRAFT!
Where can I buy from this guy?
Ya know, I’m a huge fan of su. But come on people. The irl stones and gems came before the show. Yes, we know this is lapis lazuli. Yes, we know there’s an su gem based off of it. To all su commenters: stop!!!
God, I hate it when people in the comments reference Minecraft or SU. Please stop. I love lapis lazuli cause it’s beautiful, not cuz it’s in a show for children
Chile have lapizlazuli too
Can I have some? *I have 30 lvl here*
For minecraft
What is that brown material shown on the other side?
I just saw a piece of the good stuff in Tucson. hand-sized piece, only $5,000. If I’d had more money I would have bought it. Looked like it was polished, and wet, but that’s how the good stuff looks. Most people will never see it outside of Japan, that’s who buys all the top quality stuff.
Now you can enchant your pickaxe to mine faster! wait.. Do u even have a enchanting table?
Now I need to enchant my armour
Could u give me some lapis i need to enchant my sword
Can it enchant my diamond sword?
You can also find some of that in homeworld or with a peridot

Why you guys steel Lapis Lazuli from Minecraft 🙁 xD
"I’m Lapis Lazuli! And you can’t keep me trapped here any more!"
Bob
You can enchant your sword with this in enchanting table 😀
the earth gives so much. time for us to give back!
ben buraya nasıl geldim
on the real tho how bad to lapis stink during the cutting ive heard that during cutting lapis stink
oh hello bob
Lapis Lazuli is not 8 on the hardness scale guy, that would make it harder than agate and it’s _much_ softer. The near pure blue material barely comes in at 5 (some even less). The Afghani lapis I have is harder – maybe 6 to between a 6 and 7 but if you have any harder than that please explain what makes it that hard (hey – maybe possible due to impurities or something but I’ve never seen or heard of it).
Anyway that’s some beautiful stone, thanks for showing.
Did you get these from a mirror?
What is the name of this market?
Clicks on video. Oh shit diamond….. oh… nvm. Damn.
These humans and went and destroyed the physical forms of many lapis lazuli’s
Hme ye raf buy karni h eski kya price h…..
i have 86 stacks
do your company sell rough material to carve or cut into smaller pieces?
Lapis Lazuli is actually a 5 to 5.5 on the MOH scale, nowhere near 8, it is a relatively soft rock which takes alot of practice and the right equipment to polish.
Does anyone have an idea of how to polish some ‘raw’ lapis lazuli? I recently picked up a slab of it, and it has never been polished and I really want to clean it up. What kind of cloth and material should I use for this task? Appreciate any help, thank you!
