But if we talk about the most expensive pigment in the world, it is Lapis Lazuli. According to Colormatters, this beautiful blue color was once so rare that its price often exceeded the price of gold. Even today it is difficult to find original Lapis Lazuli. In ancient times, famous painters used this color for their paintings. It was so rare that artists had to wait for months for shipments to arrive.

Why is it so rare and expensive?
Now you might be wondering why it is so rare and expensive? So let us tell you that this color is made by grinding lapis lazuli. Lapis Lazuli is a gemstone found in Afghanistan. Due to rarity it was used very little. It was prepared for special functions in most of the royal houses. It was used to make religious artefacts and pictures of deities. To make it, earlier gems were mined. Then the process of grinding it was quite difficult. For this reason its use gradually started decreasing. Later, in the late 1820s, production of synthetic ultramarine began in France and Germany, which was considered an alternative.

You will be surprised to know that the price of just one gram of Lapis Lazuli is more than 83 thousand rupees. This gem has great importance in the scriptures. According to Ratna Shastra, Lajvarta gemstone should be worn when Saturn is in high position in the horoscope. People of Capricorn and Aquarius can also wear Lajvarta.
