Illuminated Manuscript Necklace - Divine Blue Stone

Description

Heritage Inspiration At the heart of medieval scriptoria, from the 13th to 15th centuries, illuminations turned parchments into masterpieces: monk scribes applied gold leaf and lapis lazuli - azure blue pigment imported from Afghanistan via the Silk Road - to paint the Virgin's mantle or eternal skies, symbols of divinity and royalty. This Enluminure collection, produced by the Centre des Monuments Nationaux, revives this sacred art in contemporary jewels, where the blue stone becomes a personal talisman linking to the Gothic legacy of cathedrals like Chartres.
