Larimar Sterling Silver Pendant

Larimar Sterling Silver Pendant

A stunning piece of polished Larimar, with gorgeous natural Caribbean colours and patterns, set in 925 sterling silver! Petite pendant measures roughly 22x9x5mm, inclusive of bail.

Comes with a complimentary 18" sterling silver chain, Two Skies gift box and Larimar pamphlet. Letterbox friendly packaging.

This beautiful blue stone is only found in the Dominican Republic. A young girl walking with her father, Miguel, discovered Larimar in 1974 on a beach at the foot of the Bahoruco Mountain Range. Miguel took his daughter's name, Larissa, and the Spanish word for sea (mar) and formed the name Larimar, to suggest the colours of the Caribbean Sea where it was found.
Why do silversmiths use 925%? Measured in parts per thousand, pure silver (999%) is too soft so silversmiths mix it with other metals to make it it harder. The purer the metal, the higher the polish, but it is a lot softer (thus less durable). The harder the metal is, the more hard wearing the jewellery is, but it will also tarnish easier as it has less silver content. Therefore, the silver industry set a standard percentage content for fine silver (925); what we know as "sterling silver". At Two Skies our silversmiths use 925 (sterling) silver for ring shafts and moving parts, and a very high 950% on our stones settings, which enables us to get a strong jewellery item with a beautiful and secure stone setting, without any gluing. Each piece of our jewellery is hand stamped with our Two Skies Hallmark alongside the recognised industry 925 Hallmark.
