Collection: Larimar
Known by the trade name Larimar, this variety of compact pectolite can take a very high polish.
Though locally abundant, Larimar is a rare gem material. With colors ranging from white to various shades of blue, pectolite from the Dominican Republic is the loveliest in the world.
Traces of copper contribute to this blue coloration.
The finest stones are dark blue and translucent, but sky blue specimens with cloud-like patterns are also highly prized.
