Larimar speaks to me of tropical oceans, and my settings tend to reflect that. This pretty little Larimar is set on a sterling silver back with fine silver bezel. I cut out waves above the stone and stipple-textured one side. I used three jump rings as a bail for the 18 inch snake chain, which comes with the pendant. As another tribute to the pretty sun-dappled ocean pattern on the Larimar, I cut out a little tropical fish behind the stone, with a few bubbles reaching up to the sky. This is a small pendant, for those who like to wear a piece of unique hand crafted jewelry, but prefer not wearing big statement necklaces.
SIZE: This pendant measures about 1 1/8 inches long from the top of the rings to the bottom, and about 5/8" wide at the widest part. This pendant is sold with an 18 inch snake chain.
MATERIALS: Larimar, Sterling silver, Fine silver
PROPERTIES OF STONES (information compiled from various sources): Larimar is found in only one place - the Dominican Republic. It is said to help relieve stress and calms anxiety. It is supposed to help one to have an open mind during change, and to support peace, clarity, healing and love.
