Larimar stone necklace, also known as dolphin stone. In 1974, Miguel Mendez, a jeweler in the Dominican Republic, realized that the stone he had been given as turquoise was a different and previously unidentified stone. He named the stone LARIMAR, using the first four letters of his daughter Larissa's name and the letters of the Spanish word for sea, Mar. Larimar stone necklace. Subsequent research revealed that indigenous people had used this stone for centuries as a stone of good luck, believing it to ward off evil. They believed the stone was part of the lost city of ATLANTIS and that it carried the power of dolphins. For this reason, it is also known as the ATLANTIS STONE and the DOLPHIN STONE.
