Those are beautiful. Larimar is one of my favorite stones although it's pretty high dollar unfortunately.

I most definitely is pricey material. So pricey in fact that I was unable to get any material this year while out in Quartzsite. I will have to rely on the few pounds I have in stock this year unless I can find some better priced nodules.

Sweet Cabs Chris! My buddy gave me a small piece to try...and I'm still forcing myself to try..HAHA! I know how expensive it can be. I guess he purchased it from a lady in Hawaii from all places. steve

That's a beautiful pair Christopher! I have a piece here somewhere I need to get to one of these days. What's the hardness on this stuff?

I'd say it cuts like a 6 1/2 but will crumble like a 5 if you are not careful in the beginning.

Love that Larimar, hard to find good rough these days. Last I saw was in Denver for $1k/kilo but you had to buy all 24 kilos there.
