What does "LARIMAR SONORA" mean?
Larimar is a rare blue gemstone variety of pectolite found exclusively in the Dominican Republic. Its unique white and blue ocean-like patterns come from copper impurities trapped inside volcanic rock.
A Sonora gemstone—most commonly known as Sonora Sunrise or Sonora Sunset—is a striking, rare semi-precious stone composed of a natural mixture of bright red cuprite and turquoise-blue/green chrysocolla, often accented with bands of black iron oxide (tenorite)
These gemstones and colors inspired the naming of our company, where our art is inspired by natural landscapes and vibrant colors related to Latin American destinations and where the sun meets the sky and the sea.
