About This Collection
Frequently Asked Questions
What is larimar?
Larimar is a rare blue variety of pectolite found only in the Dominican Republic. Its Caribbean blue color comes from copper substitution in the mineral structure, making each stone completely unique.
Where does larimar come from?
Larimar is found exclusively in the Sierra de Bahoruco mountains of the Dominican Republic. It was first discovered in 1974 and remains the only known source in the world.
Is larimar durable enough for jewelry?
Larimar rates 5 to 6 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it best suited for pendants and earrings. Rings should be worn occasionally rather than daily. All Ulka Rocks larimar pieces are set in protective settings to maximize durability.
What color larimar is most valuable?
Deep volcanic blue larimar with minimal white veining is the most valuable. The deeper and more saturated the blue, the rarer and more desirable the stone. Pale or mostly white larimar is more common and less valuable.
How do I care for larimar jewelry?
Clean with a soft cloth and warm water only. Avoid ultrasonic cleaners, harsh chemicals, and prolonged direct sunlight, which can cause the color to fade over time. Store separately from harder gemstones.
Are these larimar pieces one-of-a-kind?
Yes. Every larimar stone has a unique pattern of blue and white, so no two pieces look alike. Ulka hand-selects each stone at trade shows and works with artisan jewelers to create original designs.
