The Larimar Cabochon Simple Band Bracelet sets a single, smoothly domed cabochon of natural Larimar onto a slim, minimal open band — a quieter take on Larimar jewelry than our arc-style pieces. Larimar is a blue pectolite found only in the Dominican Republic, prized for its soft, cloud-blue patterning. This style comes in three options — Teardrop, Round, and Rectangle Silver — letting you choose the cabochon shape and, with Rectangle Silver, a silver-tone setting instead of gold. Each cabochon is cut from raw stone, so color and veining are unique to your piece.

In Crystal Tradition
In crystal tradition, Larimar is traditionally associated with calm and with the soothing quality of the sea. Many people choose it as a quiet, everyday reminder to slow down.
How to Wear
Open the band slightly and slip it over your wrist, then adjust the ends for a comfortable fit. Its simple, low-profile design makes it easy to wear alone or stacked with other thin bangles. Because Larimar is a soft stone, save this piece for low-impact wear and take it off before anything involving water or rough contact.
Care
Larimar is a soft, water-sensitive stone. Never soak this bracelet — clean the cabochon only with a soft, dry cloth, and remove it before showering, swimming, washing dishes, or applying lotion and perfume. Store it away from other jewelry, and avoid long sun exposure, which can dull the color. The band's plating (gold- or silver-tone, per the option chosen) is not solid metal; keep it dry and skip ultrasonic cleaners.
Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the metal solid gold or silver?
A: No. Every option is a plated setting over a base metal, not solid precious metal.

A: We don't recommend it. Larimar is soft and water-sensitive, so remove this bracelet before swimming, showering, or contact with chemicals.
Q: Will my bracelet look exactly like the photos?
