Larimar is the trade name of an extremely rare blue variety of pectolite- also known as Dolphin Stone and Atlantis Stone. Pectolite is a sodium calcium silicate mineral, common around the buying world and most often occurring as a nondescript gray or white. It forms within cavities of basaltic lava. The substitution of copper instead of calcium gives larimar its unique blue color, which ranges from pale milky blue to vivid translucent blue green to turquoise with a characteristic white marbling which yields a pattern similar to that seen when sunlight shines through water.

Although inhabitants of the Dominican Republic were long aware of this beautiful stone, larimar did not gain commercial value until it was rediscovered in 1974 by Miguel Méndez, a local resident who found larimar pebbles in alluvial outwash on the beach at the foot of the Bahoruco Mountain Range. Méndez combined his daughter's name, Larissa, with the Spanish word for sea (mar), to suggest the colors of the Caribbean Sea where it was found... larimar, the ocean stone.

"Larimar is one of the cardinal Water element stones yet is born of Fire in its volcanic origins. One of the few crystals to balance the polarities of these energies, Larimar cools tempers and calms fears, relieves stress and nurtures the physical and emotional bodies. It is powerful in meditation and in connecting to the Divine Feminine, and is particularly helpful in releasing emotional bonds, patterns or principles that no longer serve the highest good. A stone of clear communication, it provides the strength and courage needed to speak openly from the heart."
