Studio Greytak ‘Larimar Earrings On Amethyst’ With Opal And Apitite

No other stone so completely captures the exact teal and turquoise shades of the sea as larimar. Born of the volcanic activity that created the Caribbean and found only in the Dominican Republic, these soothing stones bring the rhythms of the sea to Studio Greytak’s Larimar Earrings on Amethyst. Transparent apatite imitates the crystal clarity of shallow waters. Deep blue opal flashes like the sun catching a cresting wave before it splinters into a million iridescent shades beside the spiritual amethyst, which washes away all worries. The base is a mysterious cavern of amethyst shining tranquil light onto the earrings above.

The interlocked crystals in larimar are strong and resilient. They often grow in radiating or roughly circular patterns that give larimar its signature sun-dappled look. All the blues of the Caribbean from deep teal to frothy white spill through these unique stones. That color translates to a soothing, tranquil energy. Larimar invites serenity into the soul and helps access the ancient wisdom of the seas.

Apatite, too, is a stone of introspection. It is the mineral version of the mythical phoenix, the bird that rises anew from its own ashes. Millions of years ago, plants and animals died, and their earthly bodies were carried away by water to collect as increasing layers of sediment. Over time, the element phosphorous, so important to these beings while they lived, mineralized as apatite, a new form emerging from the old. Apatite symbolizes that fleeting moment when the spiritual and physical planes intersect.

The glittering rainbow within opal has long enchanted people around the world. The Aboriginal Australians, and the ancient Greeks, Arabs, and Hindis all believed opals came from the gods. Their name coming from the Greek, opallios, “to see a change in color,” opals heal broken hearts, restore inner harmony, and bring eternal hope.

In eastern and western cultures, the same ones that revered opals, amethyst spins a path to the divine. The six-sided crystal provides a “shield of spiritual light” and aids in communion with sacred realms. Religious leaders, royalty and those seeking enlightenment have always held it close. Amethysts are the perfect stones to assist in meditation and activate the mind.

This set is ideal for those who experience profound peace in the unending rhythm of the sea.
