Caring for Your Larimar Jewelry
How to Preserve the Beauty of Your AAA Larimar Stone
Crafted by nature and refined by hand, Larimar jewelry is a treasure to be cherished. Proper care of your Larimar ensures your piece maintains its brilliance for years to come.
To protect the luminous color and soft polish of your Larimar, follow this simple rule of thumb:
Last On – First Off
Let your Larimar be the final touch to your morning ritual, and the first to be removed at day’s end.
Daily Larimar Jewelry Care Tips
Larimar is extremely sensitive to chemicals, so it is necessary to avoid direct contact with perfumes, lotions, hairspray, and soaps. These substances can dull the gemstone’s surface, compromise its natural luster and even ruin the stone completely.
To care for both the Larimar stone and its sterling silver setting, we recommend:
-
Wipe after each wear using a soft polishing cloth to remove oils, dirt, and daily impurities.
-
Store in an air-tight bag to minimize exposure to air and moisture, which can accelerate tarnishing.
-
Avoid water exposure, especially swimming pools, hot tubs, and saltwater. Chlorine and other chemicals will damage both the stone and silver over time.
Sterling Silver Care
To preserve its brilliance:
-
Use a specialized silver polishing cloth regularly to gently buff away tarnish before it becomes permanent.
-
Do not use any harsh commercial jewelry cleaners, especially those not specifically designed for both sterling silver and porous gemstones (like opals and pearls).
-
Never use ultrasonic or steam cleaners—they may damage Larimar’s internal structure and surface.
Gentle Reminders for Wear
-
Do not bend cuff bracelets or attempt to reshape them. This can damage the silver and loosen the stone’s setting.
-
For clasped bangles, be mindful of their alignment. Always wear the push-button clasp on the inside of the wristto prevent accidental opening.
-
Remove Larimar jewelry before cleaning, gardening, exercising, or any hands-on activity to prevent impact, pressure, or exposure to household chemicals.
