September Birthstone Pendant Necklace – Lapis Lazuli, Silver

A single lapis lazuli pendant, deep inky blue with soft traces of gold where pyrite runs through it, set in sterling silver and hung from a sterling silver chain. The chain adjusts between 16 and 18 inches, so you can wear it closer to the collarbone or with a little more drop, whichever feels right.

Lapis lazuli is one of September's two birthstones, alongside sapphire, which makes this a natural gift for a September birthday, but it works just as well as a way to mark any birth month that matters to you — your own, a child's, or someone close to you.

Each stone is a genuine, natural lapis lazuli, polished as a smooth cabochon rather than faceted, since lapis is an opaque stone rather than a clear one. You may notice small variations in colour and the pattern of gold flecks from one piece to the next — that's what comes with a real stone rather than a manufactured one. The pendant measures approximately 5mm x 12mm and is finished in sterling silver.

This necklace is part of Lulu + Belle's Element birthstone collection - pieces set with genuine precious or semi-precious stones, one for every birth month. If you'd like a matching pair, our September Birthstone Stud Earrings – Lapis Lazuli, Sterling Silver are cut from the same genuine lapis lazuli and finished in sterling silver.

If you're wearing the birthstone of more than one loved one, you can add another birthstone pendant to your necklace — browse the collection here.
