Larimar: The Caribbean Gemstone of Serenity

When you first lay eyes on a piece of larimar, it’s easy to see why this gemstone is so beloved. With its tranquil blue and white patterns that resemble sunlight dancing on tropical waters, larimar has earned the nickname the Dolphin Stone or Atlantis Stone. But beyond its beauty, larimar holds a fascinating story and a unique connection to the Caribbean.

What is Larimar?

Larimar is a rare blue variety of the mineral pectolite, found only in one place on Earth: the Dominican Republic. Its distinctive colour ranges from pale sky-blue to deep ocean tones, often accented with swirling white or green patterns. Each stone is unique, like a natural painting of waves and clouds.

The Origins of Larimar

Discovered in the 1970s, larimar quickly became sought after for its rarity and striking colour. Its name comes from a blend of “Larissa,” the daughter of one of its discoverers, and the Spanish word for sea, “mar.” Together, Larimar reflects both its origins and its oceanic beauty.
