Normally I don't watch his shows, however as I was channel surfing I spotted the lapis necklace and earrings. How great these would look with white shirt and jeans so I splurged and just received today. They are beautiful!!!

Sorry, my three dogs are on my lap so I can't get up to get the item numbers... later. Anyone else order it?

I've ordered his lapis pieces in the past.  They often have white specks which is not good.  Of course they're never seen in on-air demos.  I hope you got a good piece without white.

He keeps saying he can't get lapis yet keeps selling it.

On inspection, I'm seeing a few white speckles on the beads-barely noticeable and none on the earrings. Thanks for the heads up .

I don't buy lapis. It's a personal decision I made few years ago. That's all I will say about it.

@SilleeMee You have me curious. I googled Lapis and don't see anything that would make me leary to buy/wear Lapis. Am I missing something?

Thank you.

It has to do with where it comes from and who controls the mining operations there. I won't go into details.

I bought his last TS necklace in the lapis, #840-417. It's lapis with turq and spiny oyster beads. Haven't gotten it yet but will report back when I get it.

Education isn't harmful to share. This is similar to conflicts in other parts of the world that affect consumer choices, I.e. conflict-mined diamonds:
