The benefits of Larimar

Larimar in mineralogy

Hydrothermally formed, Larimar consists of oxides of calcium, sodium, silicon, phosphorus and water, with traces of copper, manganese, aluminum and potassium.

It is very likely that copper, although present in trace form, gives Larimar its blue color.

The Larimar story

Although "discovered" in 1916, the Larimar deposit was only exploited from 1974 onwards, thanks to 2 inhabitants of the village of Chupaderos who noticed the blue stone in the river and found the deposit by going upstream. One of them, Miguel Mendes, became the mine's owner and named the stone after his daughter: Lari Larissa and mar mer.

Despite its relatively high price, Larimar soon became a great success in jewelry and lithotherapy.
