Larimar ~ incl. 2mm leather cord in antique brown for knotting.

Origin: Dominican Republic


Larimar is a variety of pectolite and forms hydrothermally in basalt. Its sky blue color comes from the element vanadium. Larimar belongs to the mineral class of silicates.
Larimare were first discovered in 1974 in the Dominican Republic. It was used as a decorative stone at the beginning of the 1980s. Because of the sea blue color and in honor of his daughter Larissa, the local art expert Miguel Mendez coined the name “Larimar” (mar = sea/Spanish). When the sites along the southwest coast were exhausted, Mendez discovered another site seven kilometers from the coastline. The blue pectolite is usually available as a polished cabochon and is extremely popular as a gemstone, future stone and healing stone.

In its meditative function, the energies can develop even better in interaction with other blue stones such as turquoise or chalcedony. You should discharge the Larimar once a week under warm running water and charge it in the morning or evening sun for around 60 minutes. You can place Larimar healing stones directly on the skin.

The light blue Atlantis stone is particularly suitable for reflexology massage. In addition to the throat chakra, its main chakra is also the heart chakra. In meditation the Larimar meaning is that of self-realization. The stone also releases its powers in a stone circle or simply by looking at it. It is said to be particularly beneficial for children if they tend to daydream. If the Larimar changes color, this is a sign that it is working particularly intensively for you. That's why you should always pay attention to weekly cleaning.
