Small and light colored.
Well made but smaller and more narrow than buyer review pictures.  Reminds me more of a  light blue opal with a small cloud in one end.  Does not look like advertisement and is  definitely not a statement as advertised. I'm afraid you might find something pale blue or even plastic much like it for much much less.<br />  It's a baby blue, and the thing that sets quality  Larimar apart is it looks like ocean water with strong depth of colors ranging from blues, greens and white lines like water pockets.  Then Ive seen cheaper Larimar that looks more like a green jade color with bits of white and some brown.  The more expensive Larimar the brighter and looks like ocean water or waves moving and some times water with white foam in it.  Nature really makes a masterpiece display in good Larimar.  You just cant say this one is what quality Larimar looks like. There's nothing about this stone that looks like Larimar to me.  It also has no translucency or water look.  It looks totally opaque.  The best Larimar is more expensive.  Just don't think you got a deal on the stone, because A or AA etc. doesnt look like this at all.  Workmanship  perhaps.<br /><br />I'm being very specific because I have a lot of Larimar and I had no idea when I purchased some of it what quality Larimar looks like.  It's best to research gems before you buy and not buy just because it's a pretty color.  Sellers know exactly what constitutes good Larimar and no one is going to tell you.  You have to look it up.  All in all, the carving, the nice chain and how the stone is set give it some value.  I think the stone itself is not a high quality and looks a bit cheap to me.  Definitely nothing to send to a friend as an example of your favorite Dolphin or Caribbean stone.
