Hi people just ran across this forum and thought I’d give it a try. I’ve been making jewelry for a little over 20 years I’ve got quite a bit of knowledge working with Larimar. This is a stone that frustrates most people but when everything goes right you can really come up with some spectacular pieces. That being said you can also go thru your savings just buying material. Observing everything that your buying is a must and hands on experience is a must. I’m anxious to show my work on this forum I hope I can figure out how to post pictures. I’ll keep my fingers crossed . Timmy

Welcome to the forum from Utah. I look forward to seeing your posts of Larimer. Its a tough stone to cab, but is manageable.

Welcome! Oooooooo..... larimar. drooling Yes, we'd love some pics, hints and tips! Cloudinary can be picky to set up, but once you do it, it works like a charm.

It's one of those materials that have driven me crazy - I've tried it a few times - spent a lot of money with zero results to show for it. If you need help figuring out the photo posting thing please let us know.

Welcome from Northern Arizona!
If I can figure it out, then anybody can and it only took me about 10 minutes. The tutorial works great.

I've got a gorgeous piece of rough that will more than likely stay a specimen but I'm anxious to see your work in case one day I change my mind😅
