Larimar is a rare variety of blue pectolite, found only in 1 square kilometer of the Dominican Republic. White pectolite is a zeolite mineral found in other locations, but larimar occurs only on the island of Hispaniola, Dominican side. Top grades of larimar have been mined out for several years, and the mines are inaccessible seasonally, so supply can vary greatly. The future of this unique Caribbean blue stone remains to be seen.

Care for gemstones in sterling silver jewelry: 

As with all natural stones set in silver, these jewelry pieces should be removed when taking a shower, swimming, or entering a hot springs. Water (especially hot water) can damage natural materials and even cause settings to fail. This is especially true with gemstone rings!

*Though many gems and minerals have historical and cultural associations with healing properties, these items are sold for wear in jewelry, display, study, and collector interest only.
