A Piece of the Caribbean, Yours Alone.
Ten Larimar Collections, each with its own distinct stones — captured from the only place on earth where larimar is found, high in the Dominican Republic's mountains. Hand-fabricated in WILLWYN's signature textured .999 fine silver, because the rarest things deserve a setting built only for them.
She fastens the pendant before she even decides what outfit to complement it with. The stone captured that precise blue hue, reminiscent of the Caribbean waters she still dreams of. She chose this exact Larimar stone and watched as Kristina created each piece especially for her. She knows its story before she ever puts it on.
Someone leans in across the table. "I have to know where you got that." She touches it lightly. "I had it made," she says. "The designer is extraordinary." She doesn't need to say anything else. The piece says it for her.
This experience is what it feels like to wear something that exists nowhere else. Not a trend, not a compromise, not something settled for because it was close enough. Entirely hers.
Each collection is uniquely hand-fabricated for your stones. Rendering shown for inspiration.
Who This Is For
This collection is for you if:
You are, or know, a woman who collects beautiful things from the places she has been and the life she has built. You want her to wear something completely one-of-a-kind, because she is.
You’ve walked through gallery after gallery, boutique after boutique, and still never quite found the piece that defined what you were looking for.
You want a designer who actually listens, one who knows that what you are describing is more than just ordinary jewelry.
You believe natural materials should be honored, showcased exactly as nature made them. WILLWYN designs jewelry for the woman who wants pieces that tell her story, made by someone who took the time to learn it.
The Offer
Commissioning this Larimar Collection creates something no store could ever offer: a one-time pairing of stone and design made just for you.
Your collection includes a textured silver ring, a pendant necklace, a cuff bracelet, and a matching pair of earrings. I will set each Larimar stone, chosen for its unique beauty, and hand-polish every piece to highlight its natural patterns. Of the ten collections that will ever exist, only yours will carry these exact Larimar stones. Cultured freshwater pearls and WILLWYN's signature wave-textured .999 fine silver complete each piece, which is fabricated entirely by hand at my bench.
This is not buying a finished product off a shelf. This is commissioning a collection built specifically for you, from sourcing to final finishing.
The Designer Kristina
I came to jewelry design through a nursing career that demanded one thing above all else: the ability to see every person as completely, irreplaceably unique. That belief has never left me, and I bring that same feeling to my bench today.
I grew up spending summers at my family's lake cabin in Northern Minnesota, WILLWYN, built by my great-grandparents William and Winnefred in 1930. As a little girl, I waded that shoreline for hours collecting agates and arrowheads, watching the water slowly polish rough stones into something luminous. I didn't know then that I was training my eye. I just knew what was beautiful.
That same eye followed me on a Caribbean cruise years later, when a brilliant blue stone stopped me in my tracks. It was the exact color of the water around me, set in silver. I didn't know its name yet. I only knew I had to have it. That stone was Larimar. And that moment is why this collection exists.
Today, I meticulously design and handcraft each WILLWYN creation, sourcing the highest-quality materials from prestigious suppliers such as Rio Grande and Stuller. I cut and polish my own stones to preserve their natural beauty and shape, revealing exactly what nature intended.
The Experience
Within a week of your commission, I will source your Larimar and send you a photo as soon as I find it. You are included in my process from day one.
You will receive updates throughout the fabrication process, so you always know where your piece stands and will never be left waiting in the dark.
Every piece of fine silver is stamped .999 to verify its purity. Your Larimar is sourced directly from the Dominican Republic, the only place on Earth this stone is found, and I personally select, hand-cut, polish and consult with you on every stone before it is set.
When your collection arrives, about 5 to 7 weeks after production begins, it comes in luxury packaging.
As a WILLWYN collector, your door opens to future designs. You are added to my VIP list, giving you early notice and first access to future collections before they are released to the public.
The Investment
$4,750 (plus applicable tax) for the complete four-piece Larimar Collection.
This price reflects genuine .999 fine silver and genuine high-quality Dominican Republic Larimar, a rare stone found only in the mountains of the Dominican Republic, all hand-fabricated over approximately 5 to 7 weeks. It also offers something most off-the-shelf jewelry does not: you get to see your exact stones before they are set into the piece. If you do not feel the stones are for you, I will show you what else is available from my Larimar collection for you to choose from.
Only ten of these collections will ever exist.
Each Larimar Collection ships with a signed Certificate of Authenticity, personally completed by designer Kristina Clark, confirming your collection's hand fabrication, materials, and permanent place within this limited edition of ten. Collections are numbered in sequence as they are reserved, and your certificate will show your exact collection number, from 1 of 10 through 10 of 10.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Larimar, and why did you choose it for this collection?
Larimar is one of the rarest gemstones in the world, found only in a single region of the Dominican Republic. Its natural blue and white patterns evoke the colors and movement of the Caribbean Sea, and no two stones are ever exactly alike.
The first time I saw exceptional Larimar, I knew it was unlike any gemstone I had worked with. Every stone has its own character, its own patterns, and its own story. I wanted to create a collection that honored that individuality rather than treating it as just another stone to be set in jewelry.
This collection was designed to celebrate genuine rarity, not manufactured scarcity, but a natural treasure that exists in only one place on Earth. Every piece begins with carefully selected Larimar chosen for its beauty, color, and unique character.
Why did you choose .999 fine silver instead of .925 sterling silver?
Most silver jewelry is made from .925 sterling silver, an alloy containing 92.5% silver and 7.5% other metals, typically copper, to increase hardness.
This collection is handcrafted in .999 fine silver, the purest form of silver used in jewelry. Fine silver contains virtually no added copper, giving it a naturally brighter white appearance and often making it more resistant to the darker tarnish commonly associated with sterling silver.
Working in fine silver requires greater patience and precision because it is softer than sterling silver. I chose it intentionally because its luminous finish complements the natural beauty of Larimar and reflects the level of meticulous craftsmanship I wanted this collection to represent.
Why is this collection limited to only ten?
Every collection is individually hand-fabricated by me, one piece at a time.
There are no castings, no production lines, and no outsourced manufacturing. Each bracelet, ring, pendant, and pair of earrings requires many hours of careful fabrication, stone setting, finishing, and polishing.
Ten collections is the honest number I can create while maintaining the level of craftsmanship that defines WILLWYN Fine Jewelry.
Once all ten collections have been completed, this exact design will never be reproduced.
Is this truly hand-fabricated?
Yes.
Every piece is fabricated entirely by hand in my studio from raw precious metal and carefully selected gemstones.
Rather than using mass-produced cast components, I individually shape, fabricate, solder, set, finish, and polish every piece myself. Each Larimar gemstone is selected for its individual beauty and incorporated into a design created specifically around that stone.
The result is jewelry that cannot be replicated through mass production because each collection is uniquely handcrafted.
Why does hand fabrication matter?
Hand fabrication allows each piece to be built around the individual gemstone instead of forcing the gemstone into a pre-made casting.
This process gives me complete control over every detail, from proportion and balance to the smallest finishing touches, resulting in jewelry that reflects true craftsmanship rather than assembly-line production.
Every hammer mark, curve, bezel, and polished surface represents time, skill, and careful attention to detail.
Is this collection considered collectible?
Larimar is a finite natural gemstone found in only one location in the world. Every stone is unique, and no two collections can ever be identical.
Combined with individually hand-fabricated .999 fine silver and a production limited to only ten collections, each piece is intentionally rare.
My hope is that your collection becomes something you wear, enjoy, and eventually pass down—a meaningful piece created to last for generations.
What happens after I reserve my collection?
Once your reservation is confirmed, I will personally contact you to discuss sizing, fit, and any details unique to your collection.
This is a personal experience from beginning to end. You'll work directly with me, the designer and maker of your jewelry, not through a customer service department.
Each collection is created specifically for its owner, ensuring that every detail reflects the same level of care that goes into its craftsmanship.
What if the collection isn't the right fit for me?
Your satisfaction is important to me.
Please review my return and refund policy before placing your reservation. If you have questions beforehand, I encourage you to contact me directly so we can discuss the collection and determine whether it is the right fit for you.
Have questions before reserving your collection?
I believe purchasing handcrafted jewelry should feel personal.
If you have questions about Larimar, the fabrication process, sizing, materials, or the collection itself, I would be delighted to speak with you personally.

I found beauty in Larimar the same way you may have: unexpectedly. By the Caribbean waters, where we found a truly unique place on Earth, I felt inspired and have been designing this collection to inspire others ever since.
You have looked long enough for jewelry that defines your story. This is a collection built around a stone combination created only for you, or for that special person in your life.
There will only be ten. If one of these exquisite collections is meant for you, I would be honored to create it.
