Ultramarine Vein

Ultramarine

Ultramarine is a deep blue pigment historically derived from lazurite, the principal component of the metamorphic rock lapis lazuli. The pigment was produced by grinding the stone and undergoing a complex washing process to isolate the blue mineral, which made it exceptionally valuable.

Vein

A vein is a blood vessel in the circulatory system of humans and most other animals that carries blood towards the heart. Most veins carry deoxygenated blood from the tissues back to the heart; exceptions are those of the pulmonary and fetal circulations which carry oxygenated blood to the heart. In the systemic circulation, arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart, and veins return deoxygenated blood to the heart, in the deep veins.
