Lapis Lazuli vs Sodalite: How to Spot Real Lapis
Sodalite is the stone most often confused with lapis. Both are blue, but they are easy to tell apart once you know what to look for.
| Check | Lapis lazuli | Sodalite |
|---|---|---|
| Colour | Deep, even royal blue | Darker navy to violet blue |
| Gold flecks | Usually shows golden pyrite specks | Rarely has pyrite |
| White markings | Small white calcite patches | More white or grey veins running through |
| Price | Higher, especially with strong blue | More affordable |
Also watch for dyed howlite or dyed jasper sold as lapis: the colour often looks too uniform and the dye may collect in cracks. If you like sodalite's look, see our sodalite guide.

Lapis Lazuli Meaning and Who Should Wear It
Lapis was treasured by ancient Egyptians and Mesopotamians as a stone of royalty and wisdom. In crystal tradition it is linked with truth, self-expression, focus and inner confidence, which is why students and people in speaking roles often choose it. In Indian astrology it is often treated as a substitute for blue sapphire, so it follows Saturn's rules; read who should not wear lapis lazuli and lapis lazuli bracelet benefits before wearing it as a remedy. These meanings come from tradition and personal belief.
How to Care for Lapis Lazuli
Lapis is a softer, slightly porous stone. Keep it away from water, perfume, lotion and cleaning chemicals, which can dull the polish. Wipe it with a soft dry cloth and store it separately so harder gems do not scratch it.
