Larimar Gemstone: The Gemstone Of The Caribbean

Larimar GemstoneLarimar Gemstone: The Gemstone Of The Caribbean



The Caribbean, also known as the West Indies, is an archipelago and includes the countries those border the Caribbean Sea or lies on the Caribbean Plate. The countries and the islands those constitute the Caribbean are located the south and east of Mexico and the north and west of Venezuela. The Caribbean is best known for its beaches, picturesque islands, mountains, and the fun loving people swinging to the rhythm of the samba, making it a favorite tourist destination.


Since time unknown the Caribbean has been calling tourists by its seas, islands, people-a place where the land and the seas are in perfect harmony. Tourism forms the major industry in this region.


Other than tourism, the region has some excellent mines, producing some of the rarest gems, Larimar being unique among them.


Larimar is the "Gemstone of the Caribbean" and is only mined in one location in the Dominican Republic and is therefore highly sought after and collectable! Reflecting the azure blue waters of the Caribbean, Larimar is a recently discovered rare gemstone found in only one minesite on our Planet. Often mistaken for translucent Turquoise or fine blue Jade, Larimar beautifully mirrors the waters surrounding its island origin. Larimar's crystal vibrations and unique blend of colors have drawn many people to it.


It is a variety of pectolite, an acid silicate hydrate of calcium and sodium, not a very uncommon mineral in all parts of the world. It's known and loved for the shades of extraordinary blue color often resembling the clear blue oceans in tropical areas. Larimar is one of the "spiritual healing gemstones" that radiate love and peace and promote tranquility. via
