Houseki no Kuni - Lapis Lazuli stands as a luminous crystalline figure, captured in a dynamic mid-pose. The sculpt emphasizes Lapis' slender, gem-like form with faceted surfaces that catch light from every angle, revealing a spectrum of deep cobalt, azure, and sky tones. The translucent resin finish mimics the gemstone's inner glow, while subtle gradients on the torso and limbs reproduce the character's mineral depth. The figure features carefully opened joints to allow a natural, floating stance, with hair and clothing sculpted as sharp crystalline ribbons that ripple as if wind passes through a cavern. Her eyes are bright and reflective, with careful pigment to simulate internal sparkle. The base is minimalist, designed to resemble a shard of rock or a pedestal of polished crystal, ensuring Lapis Lazuli looks perched between sea and stone on display.

Within Houseki no Kuni, Lapis Lazuli is one of the many sentient gems who roam a world shaped by mineral form and existential struggle. Born as a tranquil blue gem, Lapis carries both curiosity and caution in her interactions with fellow gems and the lunar hunters who threaten their society. Her story arcs explore themes of memory, identity, and what it means to belong, as she and other phantasmic characters confront questions of purpose and value beyond mere mineral composition. Despite a soft demeanor, Lapis demonstrates resolve in moments of danger, using her water-like symbolic resonance to reflect, refract, and adapt to changing circumstances. Her bonds with companions reveal a quiet resilience, transforming hardship into artful grace as she seeks a place where she can exist peacefully, while maintaining her bond with others who share her world’s fragile beauty.
