Description
We love this adorable sterling silver cat pendant, featuring two larimar gemstones.
This item is a pendant only. Chains are available here.
What is Larimar? Larimar is a very rare gemstone. That is to say, only a small mountainous area in the Dominican Republic is where the gem can be found, and it is created by volcanic activity. Norman Rilling and Miguel Méndez discovered the gemstone in 1974, and Méndez created the name larimar, by combining his daughter's name, Larissa, and the Spanish word for sea, Mar.
Some believe larimar to be a very spiritual stone. It is believed to increase speech and communication skills as well as aid the body's natural healing process.
Larimar is a natural gemstone. Therefore, each piece varies slightly.
