Larimar is like holding a tiny splash of ocean vibes—rare, stunning, and totally soothing!
Larimar is a stunningly rare gemstone found only in the Dominican Republic, carrying the soothing essence of the Caribbean sea. This variety of pectolite forms in volcanic cavities, and its vibrant blues and turquoise hues are enriched by the presence of copper.
Because it grows in limited quantities under challenging mining conditions, Larimar is increasingly rare, making it a highly sought-after gem for collectors and crystal enthusiasts alike.
The stone was named in the 1970s by Dominican priest Miguel Méndez, combining his daughter’s name, Larissa, with mar, the Spanish word for sea.
Known as the “Stone of Atlantis” and the “Dolphin Stone,” Larimar is celebrated for its metaphysical benefits. It helps dissolve emotional blockages, promotes peace and emotional healing, and encourages self-expression. With strong connections to the heart and throat chakras, it inspires clarity, compassion, and the joyful, intuitive energy of dolphins and ocean waves.
