Sterling silver crab earrings with larimar on French ear wires.

Our Larimar Crab Dangle Earrings are full of personality! Smooth cabochons of larimar, a rare and collectible Caribbean gemstone, brighten their shells. These earrings are a fun take on the classic blue crab. Larimar is a natural gemstone, so every piece will be slightly different.

Blue crabs are iconic to the beautiful Chesapeake Bay. Named for their blue claws, these creatures are vital to the bay ecosystem. A well-known symbol throughout the Chesapeake area, this creature is beautifully represented by our Satin Shell Maryland Crab Earrings.

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. Larimar is a stunning Caribbean Sea blue color, which is perfect for our sea creature inspired jewelry. With our Larimar Crab Dangle Earrings, you can appreciate this beautiful gemstone and its history.
