Larimar is a rare and unique blue gemstone found only in the Dominican Republic. Larimar is known for its striking blue colour with white or light blue marbling patterns reminiscent of the Caribbean Sea. The limited geographic occurrence and specific conditions required for its formation contribute to its rarity and add to the desirability of Larimar in the world of gemstone enthusiasts and Larimar jewellery collectors.

Geologically, Larimar belongs to the silicate mineral family and is a rare blue variety of the mineral pectolite. Geographically, it is the Dominican Republic's exclusive gem in the Caribbean, which apparently is the reason for its rarity and value apart from the beauty it possesses.
