Crushed Lapis Lazuli (REAL)

[DestinTurnings]

Looking to trade some real crushed lapis lazuli that I got when I was in Afghanistan. I brought back a couple of kilos when I was deployed to Bagram and it works great for inlay work. This isn't super fine (see pics) but that can be easily fixed with an old blender. This is NOT a dyed or imitation stone...it's fairly hard so you will need to use sharp tools/carbide to effectively inlay it.

The first pic is completely dry. The second has been misted with water to give you a more accurate idea of what the color will be once inlayed.

I'll trade 1/2oz-1oz bags for pretty much anything pen related. Blanks/pen kits preferred(no slimlines please). Shoot me an email with what you want to trade or questions.

Thanks,
Dave

Can you give us an idea of what you're looking for in return for an ounce or half ounce bag?

Well...I'm not looking for the world and I'm pretty easy going. Arizona Silhoutte sells 1oz bags of other stone fillers for $20 or so I think. I'm not saying I need $20 worth of stuff for an ounce...just a reasonable trade.
