One look at Larimar and you could almost guess that it comes from the Caribbean. It conjures up images of blue skies with wispy white clouds floating by above your head or perhaps the twirls of foam you see as waves of blue water hit the shore.
The best Larimar gemstones are either a bright sky blue or perhaps a teal or turquoise color with clean white feathers or swirls contrasting against this azure background.
The presence of copper is the most likely cause of the blue colors.

Larimar is a variety of the mineral, pectolite, which is a fairly common fibrous crystal. The vast majority of pectolite is far too soft, fragile and poorly colored to be considered as a gemstone but on very rare occasions the right mineral ingredients with the addition of heat, pressure and time can create what has come to be known as Larimar.
With such an unusual gemstone as Larimar where every example is a totally unique one-off there will always be an element of personal choice when it comes to their price. Whichever Larimar takes your fancy is the most valuable to you.
That being said, bright blue colors are the most popular and fetch the higher prices. Turquoises and teals are well-liked too and clean white wisps and marbling can add value.
Any odd patches of dark color such as black, red or brown will detract from the price unless they create interesting patterns.
Larimar gemstones can be found in quite large carat weights relatively easily. This will mean that the price will not increase dramatically as the stones get bigger - it is all about the color with Larimar.
Even though it is a rare and beautiful gemstone most examples will be between $2 and $10 per carat.

Although pectolite can be found around the world it is only the Caribbean island of the Dominican Republic that supplies Larimar gemstones. In addition, it is mined in one tiny location in the hills of the Barahona Province in the remote east of the country
Larimar is rated at 4.5 - 5 on Mohs hardness scale which means it is quite soft for a gemstone however the large cabochons are certainly strong enough to be used as pendants, necklaces, brooches and larimar earrings. Even rings are an option with protective settings.
The cool colors, reasonable prices and availability in large sizes make it perfect for imaginative and eye-catching pendants.

I am currently pleased. I like the layout of the website.
Overall Rating -> 9
over the experience was similar to other sites i have used. The only real note I have is the checkout experience was tedious and discriminatory, i wouldn't accept visa gift cards, which not only have guaranteed funds but help protect from misuse of personal information, but would not accept my visa b/c it is a prepaid card. I don't have bank account and I have been using the prepaid card for years without issue so this was disappointing to me. I feel safer using reputable gem sites rather than amazon or ebay (I have been sold fake gems with fake certs on both), but not being able to use my own valid legitimate funds and having to find a friend to buy for me b/c I use a non-bank card like 40% of the country is insulting.
