Larimar was officially identified as a gemstone in 1974, though locals had known of it for centuries.
Our raw pieces are sourced from Barahona Province, Dominican Republic. Worth knowing: a lot of the larimar on the market is heat-treated and coated. What we carry is natural and untreated.
In crystal traditions, larimar is often associated with quiet, steady calm, working through difficult feelings at your own pace, and opening to connection, with yourself and others. It's traditionally linked to the throat and heart chakras. If that resonates, keep one in your pocket on days you know you'll need to speak up. Work with it the way that fits your own practice.
These are traditional associations drawn from historical practice. This stone is not a substitute for medical or mental health care.
