The Parisian Icon | Handcrafted Lapis Lazuli Eiffel Tower

The unmistakable silhouette of the Eiffel Tower is interpreted in richly coloured Afghan lapis lazuli, uniting Parisian architecture with centuries of gemstone craftsmanship.

Handcrafted in Kabul by Rayees, The Parisian Icon transforms one of the world’s most recognizable landmarks into a sculptural work of natural stone art. Carefully shaped lapis lazuli panels create its soaring geometric form, tiered structure and architectural arches.

The lapis lazuli originates from Sar-e-Sang, Badakhshan—Afghanistan’s historic source of this celebrated blue gemstone. Each component is individually shaped, assembled, polished and hand-finished in Kabul, allowing the stone’s deep blue tones, natural pyrite flecks and calcite veining to remain visible.

Designed for collectors, interior designers, travelers and meaningful gifting, this sculpture brings architectural character and Afghan craftsmanship to a console, library, executive office, display cabinet or formal living space.

Natural Variation and Authenticity

Natural variations in blue tone, pyrite, calcite veining, surface character and weight are signatures of genuine lapis lazuli. Because every component is shaped and assembled by hand, subtle differences in alignment and detailing may also occur.

These variations are not defects; they are evidence of natural material and individual craftsmanship. A Golden Loom Afghanistan Certificate of Authenticity is included.

Care

Display indoors on a stable, level surface. Dust gently with a clean, dry, soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, chemical polish, prolonged moisture, direct heat and sudden impact.
