National Larimar Day

Commemorates Father Miguel Domingo Fuertes' discovery of larimar in 1916

This observance celebrates a rare blue variety of pectolite found in the Dominican Republic. The stone’s pale and deep blue patterns have made it important to local jewellery and craft traditions. The commemoration recalls a priest’s early report of the mineral near Barahona, long before its later commercial development.
