Larimar is a rare type of blue pectolite that can mainly be found in the Dominican Republic in the Caribbean. Pectolite is usually white, but copper inclusions make the Larmiar stone a beautiful blue colour. It is formed from volcanic activity when minerals crystallise in volcanic cavities and with the presence of specific elements, such as calcium, sodium, and hydroxide, pectolite crystals are able to be formed. Over time, heat, pressure and geothermal activity can allow the inclusion of other elements and cause colour variations.

Feng Shui:

In Feng Shui, Larimar represents the water element. By utilising water energy, it is said to bring stillness, quiet strength, purification, and allows inner potential to be released. As the water element brings rebirth and regeneration and is associated with the North area of a home or room in Feng shui, placing larimar in the North can bring balancing energy to your Career and Life Path.
