AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Larimar is a rare stone originating exclusively from the Dominican Republic; it is valued for its hues reminiscent of the turquoise waters of a lagoon.

Local legends suggest that it is the fruit of mermaid tears. These tales add to its mystique and allure.

In lithotherapy, larimar is often associated with several virtues. It is said to promote tranquility of mind, inner peace, and relaxation. It helps to calm strong emotions and to foster harmonious communication. Larimar is also considered a stone that promotes emotional and spiritual healing, and that encourages self-expression; it gives a sense of calm and well-being to the wearer.

Rhodiation is a finishing treatment applied at the end of production that coats silver with a thin layer of rhodium, a precious metal in the platinum family. It provides the piece with increased resistance to oxidation and an intense white shine. A proven technique, used by the great jewelry houses.

Real photographs; what you see is what you receive.

Careful packaging.
-----------------------------------

1. Secure shipping with a tracking number.

2. Shipments twice a week. For Europe and international destinations, delivery times may vary from 8 to 15 days depending on the destination and the time required for customs checks at the borders.

3. All my stones are genuine, without color treatment, resin, or plastic. They have all been selected with care, but as they are natural and handmade products, they may sometimes have small imperfections.

4. The chain in the photos is included in the sale. It measures 40 centimeters.

5. Unlike industrial jewelry, an artisanal stone-and-silver piece made by hand, even of high quality, may show slight marks or traces that attest to its authenticity.

Thank you for your interest and happy bidding.
