Discover Larimar Jewelry

An Origin Story

Deep in the tropical island of Dominican Republic, a hidden treasure that captures the beauty of this Caribbean oasis has rested deep under the island’s central volcano site. Hardened and formed by the wildly powerful forces of volcanic activity, the Gemstone Larimar was born. Colored by the nutrient rich soil and geology of Dominican Republic, Larimar is one of the few true gemstones of the Caribbean.

Immerse yourself in the discovery of Larimar. The exotic luxury stone of the tropics, and one of the Caribbean’s best kept secrets.

The name larimar has two parts stemming from its origins; Larissa daughter of the missionary who discovered the stone on the island many years ago, and Mar Spanish for the word Sea. Larimar is also known as “the stone of the ocean.”

In its raw form, the stone reminds us never to judge a book by its cover, for within the gruff and rocky exterior contains an unprecedented beauty that lovers of gemstone jewelry have appreciated since its discovery. With the helping hand of nature and a little luck, a good Larimar stone’s interior features a stunning display of blue and white colors that is sure to please the senses.

Found in just 1 sq. mile in the remote Dominican rainforest, miners extract the rough material in hopes of finding quality stone that can make it into the jewelry. This makes it one of rarest naturally occurring gemstones in the world.

Here are three things that describe the variation in colors in a good quality piece of this Caribbean Gemstone.

  • Ocean & Sea Blues – Just like the immense display of color in the Caribbean Sea
  • Shorebreak Whites – Inspired by the crashing waves as they wash up on shore
  • Lagoon Greens – There is a hint of green which gives an exotic and tranquil element

The above three colors are mixed in harmony to achieve its Larimar’s unique appearance. But, the design of each stone is entirely up to mother nature. No one piece is ever the same which makes it one of the few visibly different stones in the world.

Drawing from its roots among paradise some say the stone has calming properties. A piece of Larimar can be worn as a reminder to take it easy and relax. It can be also be an excellent keepsake to remember your time spent by the shore.

HIGHLIGHTS OF GOOD QUALITY LARIMAR

Not all Larimar is created equal. Like diamonds and other natural gemstones there is a grading scale which provides clarity and explantation on the varying degrees of quality that exist in the market. You can spend a lot of money buying the wrong Larimar stones, that’s why the source where you purchase is very important. Below is a listing of the different variations.

AAA Quality Larimar
Landing Company Jewelry Grade Quality Rough Larimar

LARIMAR GRADING SCALE

  • Below Grading: Dull color, brown inclusions present, no blue
  • A Grade: Dull color, minor inclusions present, Green and White color, very little blue tones
  • AA Grade: Good color, may include very small inclusions, more blue color than before, reduced but still mix of green and white color
  • AAA Grade: Great color, mixed blue tones is prevailing color, no inclusions, may include minor green color, white in vivid contrasting detail with pattern
  • AAA+ Grade: Excellent color, no inclusions, no green tones, mix of blue tones light and dark is prevailing color, white details enhance piece in interesting patterns

AAA and AAA+ is Jewelry Grade quality. Landing Company only uses this type of stone. Jewelry grade is the top 5% of all of the Larimar in existence. Which by its very nature makes it difficult to procure and curate it from all the other stones that are out there.

Due to the natural variation in each stone the items pictured in the catalog may not necessarily be the one you receive. However, we only sell the best. So, it will be beautiful. As always, there is a generous return policy with regards to the Gemstone Collection items and if you are unsatisfied with the item(s) you receive you can gladly exchange it for another piece.

ALL LANDING COMPANY LARIMAR IS GUARANTEED TO BE GENUINE AND OF JEWELRY GRADE QUALITY.

Each jewelry grade piece must first be tumbled, cut, polished and hand inspected before we set the stone into our smooth polished silver designs.

As you can imagine there is a lot of effort that goes into each Larimar Jewelry piece from Landing Company. From design and curation, to the skilled artisans and silversmiths that make each piece, to the stone cutters that have learned the art of jewelry making passed on from generation to generation.

So, we only use the best stones and best quality sterling silver. Plus, the entire collection is backed by our Gemstone Guarantee. We guarantee that each piece is genuine Larimar and 100% authentic.

The definition of AAA Grade Larimar is the marbled mixture of prominent blue and white colors that highlight the composite nature of the stone. The sea blues, shorebreak whites and lagoon greens are hallmarks. Look for stones fitting this description with little to no imperfections.
