Larimar

The Larimar is also known in healing stone lore as the Atlantis Stone. Its only occurrence in its blue colors is, to this day, the Dominican Republic.
According to legend, the Larimar is said to be connected to the lost paradise. It is said that the Larimar is the only remaining testimony to the fabled island of Atlantis.
The Larimar stands as a symbol of boundlessness. Its colors are those of the endless sky and the vast sea. Since ancient times, it has been worn as a protective stone against evil spirits, natural disasters, and illnesses. Many things are attributed to this stone; among other things, the Larimar is said to open up new ways of thinking and acting and to serve self-realization.
Due to its high calcium content, it is also said to have a strengthening effect on bones and growth. The Larimar is a very popular and attractive jewelry stone, which is used for necklaces, earrings, bracelets, pendants, and bangles. It is very valuable because it has become almost exploited and therefore very rare.

The chemical formula of Larimar: Ca2Na [OH/Si3O8] + Fe, Mn
