Mehr - Lapis Lazuli Jewellery Collection

The Mehr collection is built around lapis lazuli sourced from Badakhshan, Afghanistan — one of the oldest known gemstone deposits in the world. For over six thousand years, this same region supplied lapis to ancient civilizations, creating a direct continuity between past and present in every piece.

The name draws from Urdu and Persian, meaning affection, warmth, and the sun. It also references Mehrgarh, one of the earliest civilizations in the subcontinent, known for working with lapis in this very region. Each stone carries natural pyrite inclusions — fine gold-like flecks formed under metamorphic conditions — making every piece unique.

All pieces are handcrafted in Lahore using silver and ethically sourced Afghan lapis through Orah's gemstone network, each design produced as a single edition. Learn more about the stone in our lapis lazuli guide, or explore our full range of handcrafted necklaces.
