Chilean stones

Origin you can verify.

Chile recognises two stones by decree: lapis lazuli and combarbalite. This line is reserved for pieces whose Chilean origin we can document, and none in the catalogue carries that label yet. When one does, its product page will say where the stone comes from.

Official provenance

Two stones, two official records.

These are the two stones Chile recognises in decrees published in its Official Gazette, and the basis of this line: a piece only joins it if we can document that its stone comes from here.

Lapis lazuli

Decree No. 62, Ministry of Mining

Year: 1984

Declares lapis lazuli the national stone of Chile. Signed on 20 September 1984 and published in the Diario Oficial on 23 November of the same year.

StatusIn preparationWhat is lapis lazuli

Combarbalite

Supreme Decree No. 49

Year: 1993

Recognises combarbalite as an ornamental stone of national interest because of its origin and characteristics.

Material note

Colour, veining and cut shape the piece too.

We work with the real variation in every stone. A vein, inclusion or tonal shift is not a flaw to hide: it is information for deciding how and what to pair it with.

Beyond Chilean origin

More stones, the same lens.

We choose every stone for colour, texture and presence, and every product page states its material. Chilean origin is a separate line, still in preparation.

A growing material library.

These stones appear repeatedly in our pieces and guides today. Every one changes with its cut, the light and its own formation, so we begin with a concise description before going deeper.
