Purple lapis??

Thanks everyone!

I've had a look at all of your suggestions (except for solomite, I couldn't for the life of me find any pictures for that one!)
Tanzanite seems to have the closest in colour but Charoite, purple jasper and sugilite seem to be the closest over all.

Now I just need to find where to buy them :)

Oops!!! Sorry it's Sodalite.

Ooooh. Just spied a piece of LEPIDOLITE. Forgot about this one. Definitely a possibility...
PS: Etsy may be a good source. BlissCrystals is where I saw the lepidolite.

Update

Hi lovely people :)

Thought I would do a little update :)

I decided to go down to my local metaphysical store to have a bit of a browse today. I was pretty sure they wouldn't have any of the stones you have all mentioned but, low and behold, they had both sugilite and sodalite! So I promptly bought and beautiful bright violet sugilite and a nice deep blue/indigo sodalite :D they must have been waiting for me because they were the only ones with those colourings :party:

Now I just have to figure what I'm going to do with them/where I will put them :) I might have to make them into a necklace of some description...

Thanks again for all your wonderful help :love:
