Hello Beautiful People!

Expressing yourself through jewelry is one of the best ways to make a personal statement and create a style that is uniquely yours. There are a lot of different types of jewelry out there. But not all of them are really capable of forming that statement you’re looking for. Larimar is a unique, cool-toned blue stone that can only be found in one mine in the Dominican Republic. Discovered in the 1970s, this fairly recent stone is making huge waves everywhere it’s introduced – including in the fashion industry.

The Blue Stone of Atlantis
One of the reasons Larimar attracts so much attention is in its connection to the prophesy made by Edgar Cayce. He predicted a blue stone being found at the site of the lost city of Atlantis, and declared that this stone would have both spiritual and healing powers.

Many people have already discovered the spiritual benefits of wearing Larimar and now its beautiful, unique color and hand-shaped form is beginning to attract attention as well.

A Cool Watery Color
One of the things that makes Larimar unique is its coloration. Turquoise and aquamarine are both cool-toned stones that make beautiful accents year round. Larimar falls into this color category, but with a unique blend of tones all its own.

Larimar’s cool blue color has a natural white vein, which flows through the stone in such a way as to make it look like you are wearing a piece of captured water. At times, the stone may also be accented with a deep red vein, which adds a lot of depth and contrast to the piece.

This depth and contrast is what makes Larimar a great accent to a summer wardrobe, when a cool, watery jewel is the perfect piece to capture a viewer’s attention. At the same time, the cool color of the stone also works well with winter palettes of blue, green, turquoise, gray, and white. Worn as a ring, necklace, or set of earrings, Larimar is sure to capture people’s attention.

No Two Alike
When choosing a statement piece to accent your wardrobe, it’s important to look for pieces that can help you stand out from the crowd. After all, you won’t get attention by sporting the exact same ornament as everyone else.

That’s part of what makes Larimar jewelry such a wonderful find. No two pieces of the stone are ever exactly the same. The size, vein pattern, and even color will vary from piece to piece and within one piece to give you an accent that is as unique as you are.

Each stone is also cut, polished, and laid in its setting by hand, which ensures that the quality of the piece will last for generations, while the artistry of each one will complete the look you’re trying to achieve.

Stand Out with Larimar
As Larimar’s reputation grows, so does the demand for this brilliant, unique, and beautiful stone. Its single origin status and varying size and color, however, mean that when you wear Larimar, you will always stand out from the crowd, no matter how or where you accent your wardrobe with it.
