Angelleesa Designs Ltd Small Larimar Tumblestone Chain Pendant

This is a really lovely, minimalist pendant with its own chain which, while it isn't silver that I can detect, is a lovely bright white metal that complements the gem beautifully and certainly seems to be well made. Said gem is a simple tumblestone: neither it or the setting are anything fancy, but that's good, because it means there's nothing to detract from the beauty of the stone. Quite honestly, for this remarkable price, it's of much higher quality than I'd expected. I've noticed that other buyers have complained about the supplied chain, saying that it breaks: it's a snake chain, so I recommend you don't bend it too much or it will develop a crack and then break. Mine hasn't broken so far (touch wood, because I don't have a spare chain anywhere), but I haven't had it for thirty-six hours yet. I'll update this review if the worst should happen.From a metaphysical/healing perspective, I can't give complete information about Larimar's healing properties: it was discovered in 1917, so unlike the "classic" gemstones, which have been known since antiquity - Diamond, Emerald, Ruby, Pearl, Amber, Sapphire, Aquamarine, Peridot, Topaz, Amethyst (yes -- before South America was opened up, Amethyst was as valuable as Ruby) - and have become metaphysically familiar, there hasn't been time for its full powers to come to light. Its colour gives away its influence on the throat chakra, and thus on communication, and the colour in and of itself is certainly soothing; but apart from that, I'm finding it has the power to soothe anger and stress; to bring about changes of perspective where necessary; to moderate strong views and emotions (or at the least, moderate how strongly they're expressed), and to calm stress-triggered Asthma. The gentle energies of Larimar work well with many other crystals; I find in particular that it pairs well with Rose Quartz, Amethyst, and any kind of Tourmaline. Actually, I was lucky enough a few months ago to acquire a Rainbow Tourmaline (an über-rare natural crystal with all seven colours of the spectrum, absolutely glorious), and Larimar pairs exceptionally well with it. Larimar also seems fine with Diamond, Emerald, Aquamarine, Heliodor, Morganite, Clear Quartz, Blue Topaz -- and those are just the other pairings I've personally tried!The pattern on the stone is also a lovely sight, and shows Larimar's primary power, which is that of the element of Water. Looking at it, one could be scuba diving off a Caribbean island, watching the sunlight dapple the sand as it ripples through the waves to the shallow sea bed. And coming as it does from what some people consider to be the western fringes of Atlantis, small wonder Larimar is also known as "the Atlantis stone" or "the dolphin stone". However, and somewhat unusually, Larimar's volcanic origins (Geology fans may already know it as a rare form of Pectolite) mean that it carries the power of the Fire element alongside that of Water. Few crystals combine these two opposing elements; one could take it a step further and say that Larimar also bears the power of Air (and if true, I only know of one other crystal which combines those three: it's Obsidian).I can't finish this review without talking about caring for your Larimar. It's quite a delicate stone, not strong like an Emerald; please don't subject it to knocks and bumps, because it can easily fracture or break. If you plan to wear your Larimar pendant a lot, *please* keep perfumes, make-up and skin lotions well away, as you risk them discolouring your stone -- not a good thing to do to a stone that's crossed oceans to come into your life. Also, Larimar is sensitive to sunlight and will fade with exposure (it should be charged under moonlight for safety's sake), so when wearing it, keep it tucked under your top whenever possible. Lastly, in cleaning, PLEASE DON'T expose your Larimar to chemical solutions or heat/steam: a soft-bristled brush or a soft lint-free cloth - a 100% silk scarf would be ideal for this purpose - will be enough to keep the gem clean, and when the chain and setting need cleaning, please make sure you take them to a proper jeweller; and identify the stone to them, to be sure they understand what can and can't be done to it.A MOST RECOMMENDED product from an excellent seller!

Very pretty stone. I’ve charged it and already noticed the difference when eating it. It’s paired with moldovite and it’s really powerful. Love it!The chain isn’t the best quality, but for the price, I won’t complain. I can easily put it on a better quality chain.

I love this necklace unfortunately the chain broke on 1st use luckily I had some at home it has helped me feel a lot better

Very small for the price ...,

Lovely. Sweet and dainty

I knew they are going to be small, that's why I ordered 2. But what I received was not small, it was tiny. Measurement: 9 mm by1,2 cm ( 12mm )The other one is a tiny bit bigger. Don't trust the pictures you see, it must have been hugely magnified.He wrote that the size is 11 by 25mm. That is definitely not what I received. I really don't like it when they trick you.

It is a very small pendant but pretty .

Larimar is not a cheap stone so this is excellent value for money! I have seen a few people say their chain broke immediately, but mine is still ok...even so, the pendant is beautiful for the price!
