For your consideration is a Navajo Native American, Tom Taylor, Larimar and sterling silver ring. Larimar is a semi-precious stone with its own cache of best kept secrets. This is an extremely rare precious stone that has only been found in one very small location on the planet, a remote mountain range of the Dominican Republic in the Caribbean. It is believed that an earthquake had shaken the mountains and caused the hidden gems to dislodge and tumble into the local river. The two explorers who happened upon the stone decided to call the beautiful stone Larimar. The name combined the Dominican explorer’s daughter’s name, Larissa, with the word Mar, which is Spanish word for sea—truly a unique name for a unique stone. The unique color and patterns within Larimar are the result of mixing and cooling that occurred as the stone formed. As a result of the unique minerals and cooling process during crystallization, each piece has unique color and patterning. This stunning ring features a large cabochon of polished Larimar. The teardrop cut stone is expertly set on a sterling silver base. The ring itself is composed of a two band construction. The underside of the ring is stamped “Sterling” and features the artist Tom Taylor’s hallmark. The ring measures a US size 7.
