Larimar Peardrop Pendant
$195.00
Out of stock
With its gorgeous, soft, turquoise-blue hues, it isn’t at all difficult to see why larimar is such a sought after gemstone. I normally feel drawn to create with larimar by the sea, which is no surprise considering its origins from the Dominican Republic in the Caribbean.
With nice pieces of larimar becoming harder to source, this is an incredibly beautifully-coloured specimen. The sterling silver supports the stone securely, framing the beautiful larimar seamlessly.
Approximate dimensions: Length 44mm Width 18mm Depth 6mm
This larimar pendant would make such an amazing gift, either for yourself or someone else dear to your heart. I recommend you wear it on one of your favourite sterling silver chains.
You’ll receive your gemstone crystal pendant beautifully presented, tied into a classic Kathryn Jane Design jewellery box with silver-coloured thread. If purchasing as a gift, and you’d like the pendant presented on a chain, silver-coloured display chains and sterling silver belcher chains are available. The display chains are for presentation purposes only, (not for wearing the pendant on). The sterling silver chains are generally 45cm and 60cm long, but please feel free to contact me if you’d like a chain made to a unique length. The connector rings at each end are pinched closed with the greatest of care. They are not, however, soldered.
A wee note about the images:
I attempt to take crisp, sharp photographs that can be zoomed in on to clearly show the details of the gemstone pendants. In doing so, the pendants are then being viewed at a much larger size than in real life, so details of the stones’ structure are exaggerated. Many is the time I’ve viewed a photograph and seen a detail that I simply don’t perceive when viewing the pendant up close with ‘ma naked eyes’.
Also, please be mindful that individual colour settings on monitors or device screens may alter the appearance of the colour of pendants. Multiple photos are taken on my smartphone, usually indoors and out, in an effort to best capture the colour of the stone. (With labradorite, I try to capture images without the display of colours showing, and then with the light revealing the amazing display of flashy colour in all its magnificence.)
If you’d like to see further images, please feel free to contact Kathryn.

Your Unique Pendant
Would you like a gemstone crystal pendant made, meticulously handcrafted with the highest intentions for love, growth, empowerment, and joy?
It’s an honour to offer personal, heartfelt service to all who appreciate wearing authentic, ancient crystals and gemstones, reminding us of our connection to our ancient Mother Earth, and those who simply love wearing unique, handcrafted items of beauty. I hope all Kathryn Jane Design pendants serve as reminders to breathe, and embody the powerful, renewing energies of Nature.
Whether for yourself or a loved one, it would be an honour to create something unique and deeply meaningful, drawing from my range of carefully hand-selected shaped cabochons or tumbled freeform gemstones, or transforming your special taonga (favourite gemstone treasures) into stunning pieces of jewellery. Please be assured, your treasures will be handled with the utmost care and respect.
My creation time is sacred. Whenever possible, I venture into the heart of Nature to create, where the powerful, yet tranquil, energy most supports my intuitive creative process, all the while mindfully honouring the integrity and unique expression each gemstone crystal, and holding the highest intentions for you, the eventual recipient of the pendant.
To complete the wire-wrapping process, the individual ‘threads’ of the silver framework are gathered together and folded over to create an ankh-shaped loop from which the pendant will be suspended on a chain. This feels so highly symbolic – like gathering up and integrating the multiple facets of one’s life to form cohesion, supporting and framing an authentic expression of one’s unique self. In order for this glorious artistic expression to be transformed into a wearable pendant, the ends of the threads, (wires), need to be trimmed, then tethered securely to each other. I love the metaphor of this – the rich tapestry of our past experiences, growing through experiences that weren’t necessarily ‘pretty’, provides the strength and backbone that allows our lights to now shine so spectacularly.
All pendants are handcrafted with the greatest of care to find the balance between artistic expression on the outward facing side, with security and durability on the reverse.
Sometimes it can be difficult to choose which gemstone we'd like to wear as a pendant, because they are all so incredibly beautiful! If you'd like inspiration to help choose, oracle cards are available. Most commonly used are the Liquid Crystal Oracle by Justin Moikeha Asar.
The price to create your pendant will depend upon stone used, size, amount of silver used, intricacy of design, and time spent creating. Charges generally range from approximately $90 to $350. Contact me for further pricing details for your unique project.
Looking forward to collaborating with you in order to create a beautiful, unique pendant, specifically for your needs.
Here’s a wee peek at a selection of the various cabochons and tumbled gemstone crystals available to be transformed into pendants. If you're searching for a particular stone, please feel free to ask. There's a chance I have something in my vast collection. I'm also able to provide further information and photographs for anything that may catch your eye, (or heart). In particular, if you're interested in labradorite, please contact me. (Labradorite is being transformed into pendants so often, that I struggle to keep the cabochon album up to date.)
For inspiration for your new pendant's design, see Previous Pendants.
Looking forward to connecting with you soon!
