I first learned about this stone last summer when we visited the DR. The history of larimar is so interesting. You can actually find tiny chips on the beaches! And it’s only found in the DR. I bought a set.
I have a larimar palm stone with a white peace sign (veining). It’s magical
How absolutely beautiful!!! I wish for this family’s continued success. I have loved natural stones since I was little and hope one day I might have a little stone of Larimer
Satin crystals have some lovely jewelry pieces with Larimar. Their service is outstanding; their sales are great; prices are good; quality stones and creative cuts and settings.
@@doricetimko5403 oh thank you!
They are the blue stones of Atlantis
Larimar is an amazing gemstone with unique properties! Collecting Larimar brings me a lot of joy! Some deep blue are so rare that their prices are through the roof now. The best wearable stone / looker / love on first sight in the world in my humble opinion.
I Am proud of My country.
Viva RD. Santo Domingo
Popularity is a killing curse.
I Thank God every day i was born is this island what a beauty Larimar ❤❤❤❤❤
Wikipedia has very little information on the mineral's properties beyond jewelry. For example, other minerals can produce vibrations or heat when voltage is applied.
Since buying a small piece of larimar by chance and putting it under my pillow, I have been getting the best sleep of my LIFE
So different from one piece to another. Unlike other gemstones that are considered beautiful and valuable, largely from each unit's consistency. And the extraction is clearly dangerous -- do those miners receive proper compensation? When looked upon as an industry, who benefits most from it?
Larimar is beautiful! I have live auctions on TH-cam where I sell jewelry and Larimar is very popular!
I have a huge Stone of this. 6 inches long 4 inches thick uncut
This is simular to tourqois stones .
Live Long And Prosper \\//,
Now WHO gave this gem this name?😑
Based on the the spelling and pronounciation.....only Dominicans can claim naming that gem lol also I'm pretty sure there are some Girl/women already rocking that name!!
The guy who discovered the stone named after his daughter, Larisa, and mar means “sea” in Spanish so: larimar
The Man who found it
It’s a beautiful name. You would know if you knew Spanish.
Looks like same torquoise as on Pakals death mask.
The CREATOR allows the creation t00 create ❤ very pretty
A BLUE TEAR DROP🎬
natural extraction just to make your self feel pretty or have a "wonderful memory" of your vacation, nothing really changes for the aristocrats.
That's not a gemstone. It's a pile of krap
