For those of you that are interested in how they look, I ordered the larimar and the charorite, the larimar is nothing special, it is mostly a very pale blue, not a pretty blue either, just a blue, it has a darker shade of blue in the center, it has no white in it anywhere, it doesn't have any green to it either but this stone is just blah, it's nothing special to write home about. It's going back. The charorite is beautiful and it's a dark purple, it's just a pretty stone, I was lucky to receive it. I'm keeping the charorite, I did order the rhodocrosite but ended up cancelling it, maybe in the future I'll have another chance to order it...who knows. also the rings are not as big as I was expecting them, on tv they looked huge on Colleen's hand but they aren't really. They aren't flopping all around either, the fit for me is true to size (both are 7) they are pretty as far as the silver goes. Hope you all enjoy yours.

Thanks for your review. Too bad about the Larimar because a good one is just beautiful. Enjoy the charorite.

I rarely order stones that might vary greatly in appearance unless they are dirt cheap.

Sounds like I didn't miss out on too much on the Larimar. I noticed yesterday they were selling it on waitlist for double the TS price in my size, despite selling out my size by 10AM on waitlist the next day when it was the TS! Where'd they find all these extra rings? I'm not going to pay double. Thanks for the review.

I just checked on HSN. The first reviews aren't good.

You're welcome, I noticed this morning there are 2 reviews all ready, both of them negative. I can't submit mine for 4 more days, but I will once I can. I do like the silver on them, it's bright, shiny and looks a lot like lace. I have all ready taken my larimar up to the post office to be returned.

Kachina, the navy exchange sells larimar under the name of mara lago or something like that but it is so expensive and I could never afford any of it. Not unless I saved and saved but it is extremely pretty, they must use the highest quality of stones with theirs. That's the reason I bought the tsv I was hoping I'd get something beautiful, but I didn't.

Mara Largo is the largest distributor of Larimar and the do overcharge for it, but they have nice quality. I bought a beautiful stone from an eBay seller who was also a silversmith. I had him make me a ring. It was a large stone and I believe the whole thing was just around $100. I was very pleased with it.

I also ordered the charorite and the larimar rings. There is no undergallery but the ring is not flimsly - not a lot of silver but enough to contain the ring and it stays balanced - the stone is a nice big size but not huge. The quality of my larimar was excellent - dreamy blue and white in a nice pattern - no green - I have seen better larimar but this was pretty darn good. The charorite was just breathtaking - the perfect purple in a unique pattern - very happy with my purchese.

I got the pendant in larimar. Mine looks like a "milky aqua"..........which is fine with me, because I wear a ton of turquoise, and they really go together.

I bought the charoite ring. My stone is deep and lovely, and the ring is substantial but not too large. I intend to submit a positive review.

Ditto for me on the Charlotte....gorgeous!
