    Origin of Caribbean Larimar and Caribbean Amber

    In one of the chimneys inside a volcano in the Caribbean, lava cools off and cristalizes into pectolite. Although this material is already rare in nature, this one is extraordinary and unique. Instead of a creamy white, it is BLUE like the Caribbean sea.
