Great place! Beautiful, lots of interesting information, very good prices and very nice staff!

Free and air-conditioned, dodge the heat outside and be at ease to enjoy the native blue stones and their geological history and chemical makeup in this well put-together display. History of use, mining, and many beautiful specimens to be seen, along with descriptions and examples of how it is made in to jewelery.

This is a quaint privately owned museum and store dedicated to a gemstone unique to DR. Larimar's discovery is relatively recent but is a big deal to Dominicans along with amber. It is beautiful and not crazy expensive. Under USD$100 will get you a small piece...a few hundred will get you a serious piece of jewelry and over $500 for extraordinary pieces. It's special without being formal wear jewelry. The first floor is a store and Mrs. Puello who attended us was very knowledgeable and kind. Not aggressive at all like other stores we have visited for Larimar. She spent a full hour and we were very happy with our purchase, which comes with a certificate of authenticity. I had done reading about the stone prior to going and tested her and she really knew her stuff. The museum upstairs is bilingual. Nice way to spend 10-20 minutes in la Zona. It's educational so it's fun if you are into geology, gemstones and science. If you get tired of seeing the churches in la Zona and you have eaten, these little museums are a nice way to spend time. This one has bathrooms for the public also. It's very close to the cacao museum as well.

Nice place to buy quality Larimar and Amber. Courteous staff.

This is one of the best museums in the country. Is the only place where you can find all the information and history of Larimar! I just love it!
