Boozebabe Posted May 24, 2014 #2 Share Posted May 24, 2014 I am interested in purchasing some good Larimar jewelry when our cruise is there in September. Any recommendations as to where? My bet is you'll find it everywhere. I got mine in St Thomas and there was quite a bit of it there so obviously the DR will have a lot more and the best selection. Good luck.

wassup4565 Posted June 26, 2014 #3 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Larimar is everywhere in the DR, as is amber jewellery. Bargain hard. Start at half what you intend to pay, and be prepared for a long negotiation, with a lot of drama and walking away by the seller. I sometimes find that I can get close to the price I want, and then confuse the issue by throwing another item into the bargaining table. Ha ha, just to give an example. I have a Dominican friend, and I wanted an oil painting I saw. My Dominican friend dickered for half an hour and reached the lowest price he thought he would get. I said I wanted the painting taken off the blocks and rolled for transport. This caused my Dominican friend to start negotiating a discount because we had paid for the wood blocks.
