Ring made of Sterling Silver (925 marked) and Larimar.

Larimar combines the energy of the oceans with the energy of the heavens which means Larimar helps to combine our thoughts (air) with our emotions (water). It is said that the high vibrational energy of Larimar can help to ease stress and tension and it is said to be excellent for clearing headaches. Folklore also says that Larimar has the ability to attract one’s soulmate!

Larimar is a semi-precious stone that is only found in the Barahona region, in the southwest of the Dominican Republic.
Local children used to have fun collecting Larimar pebbles that the Bahoruco River dragged and deposited on the beach in bottles, to sell them to visitors. The mines that are upstream of the river have been operating since 1976. It is a mountainous region, very humid and exuberant. The exploitation of Larimar is difficult and dangerous; the mines are always deeper and their access is difficult due to the steep and slippery terrain.
This makes Larimar a rare and unique stone.

The first Larimar mine was discovered in the Dominican Republic in 1916 by a priest. At that time, the stone was not known or valued and the Dominican Ministry of Mining denied it the permission to operate the mine. The stone and the mine fell into oblivion. It wasn't until 1976 that a craftsman learned of the existence of that stone, which he named after his daughter.
By associating the nickname “Lari”, of his daughter Larissa with the word “mar” (“sea” in spanish) due to its intense blue color, he formed the name that today describes the beautiful blue stone nowadays recognized as the gem with the color of the Caribbean Sea.

Perfect for water elemental work.
