Larimar Jewelry

Discovered in the 1970’s and found only in the Dominican Republic, this unique Caribbean gemstone is a rare form of pectolite. Its beautiful blue color bears a striking similarity to the sparkling waters of the tropics and was named “Larimar” by a Dominican after his daughter “Larissa” and “Mar”, the Spanish word for SEA. Often mistaken for Turquoise, Larimar is a much more durable stone with a hardness rating of 5 to 7.
