Larimar Information
Round Larimar beads showcase a unique beauty that captivates many jewelry enthusiasts. Known for their stunning ocean-blue hues, these beads embody the essence of the Caribbean Sea. Their serene colors range from light blue to deep turquoise, often featuring white streaks reminiscent of waves. Crafters appreciate Larimar beads for their tranquil appearance and calming energy.
Fashion and Jewelry
Artisans use round Larimar beads in various jewelry designs. These beads often appear in necklaces, bracelets, and earrings, providing a refreshing touch. Their soothing colors enhance both casual and elegant outfits, making them versatile for any occasion. Designers frequently combine Larimar with silver or gold accents, creating striking contrasts. Additionally, the natural variations in each bead ensure that no two pieces are exactly alike, adding to their charm. Jewelers love how Larimar beads can transform simple designs into eye-catching statements.
History, Mythology, and Symbolism
Larimar has a rich history linked to the Dominican Republic, where it originates. Discovered in the 1970s, the stone quickly gained popularity. Many people believe that Larimar embodies the energy of the ocean and sky, promoting peace and harmony. In some cultures, Larimar symbolizes love and healing, making it a popular choice for meaningful gifts. People often wear Larimar jewelry to connect with the soothing energy of the sea. Its calming presence encourages emotional balance and tranquility.
Mining, Production, and Applications
Larimar is a rare stone found only in the Dominican Republic, and they stopped mining it as of May 2022. Miners extracted it from volcanic formations, often working in challenging conditions. After extraction, artisans cut and shape the stone into round beads. They polish the beads to enhance their natural luster, ensuring a smooth finish.
In addition to jewelry, Larimar beads serve various decorative purposes. Crafters use them in home décor, creating beautiful accent pieces. They also make popular items in holistic practices, where people use the beads in meditation and energy work. The allure of round Larimar beads continues to inspire artisans, making them treasured components in creative expressions.

Care Guide
- Cleaning: To clean the rhodium-plated 925 sterling silver hooks and stainless steel components, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. For semi-precious stone beads, use a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh cleaning solutions or chemicals that may damage the rhodium plating or stones.
- Storage: Store your earrings in a cool, dry place, preferably in a fabric pouch or jewelry box to prevent tarnishing and scratching. Keep them away from extreme temperatures, humidity, and sunlight to protect the plating and stone quality.
- Rhodium Plating Care: Rhodium plating offers a protective layer that resists tarnishing but can wear over time. To preserve the shine, avoid exposure to moisture, perfumes, lotions, and harsh chemicals. Remove earrings before swimming, showering, or applying beauty products to extend the life of the rhodium plating. Clean the plated components gently with a soft cloth to maintain their appearance.
- Stainless Steel & Stone Bead Care:
- Stainless Steel: Stainless steel is highly durable and resistant to tarnishing. However, prolonged exposure to moisture and chemicals can cause discoloration. Wipe with a soft cloth regularly to maintain its finish.
- Semi-Precious Stone Beads: Semi-precious stones are naturally resilient but sensitive to chemicals and extreme conditions. To keep them in the best condition, avoid direct contact with lotions, perfumes, and cosmetics. Clean them gently with a soft cloth and never soak them in water.
- General Durability: Handle your earrings with care to avoid impacts or scratches. Avoid wearing them during physical activities, such as exercise or sleeping, which could lead to wear and tear. This will ensure that both the rhodium plating and semi-precious stones maintain their beauty over time.
Size Guide
6 & 10mm beads, in some cases the size of the stone beads may vary +-1mm. Hook lengths range between 1cm basic hooks, 1.5+cm English Locks, 2cm silver hooks – refer to the product photos. In newer designs, the stainless steel spacer daisies, bead caps and small beads contribute 3-4mm extra length (refer to product photo) In principle I keep the weight below 5 grams per earring, so it doesn’t stretch or hurt your ears even if you wear it the whole day. Occasionally, for some designs, that weight limit exceeds by a gram – every pair has their specific weight marked under the overview tab. Note that some earring hooks have thicker wires, and if you are not used to wearing earrings daily, using them will feel uncomfortable in the beginning.
