Larimar Oval Cab Sterling Silver Pendant

Larimar Oval Cab Sterling Silver Pendant (shop SKU SBLARIPC89) is a pendant on the shelves at Namaste Bookshop in Manhattan.

Larimar is a blue pectolite found in the Dominican Republic, valued for its sky-blue to turquoise color and white patterning. It is relatively soft and should be handled gently. In crystal traditions, larimar is associated with the sea and with calm. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim.

Sterling silver is 92.5% silver, often stamped .925; like all silver, it can tarnish over time and can be brightened with a soft polishing cloth. The title describes a cabochon, a smoothly rounded, unfaceted cut. Store jewelry dry and away from lotions, perfume, and harsh cleaners to keep it looking its best.
