Authenticity Guarantee

Authenticity Guarantee

At Mauna Vibes, authenticity is at the heart of everything we do.

Every Larimar and Dominican Amber piece we offer is carefully selected through trusted miners, lapidaries, artisans, and suppliers in the Dominican Republic. Because we are proudly based in the Dominican Republic, we have direct access to the source of these extraordinary natural treasures and personally oversee the quality and authenticity of the materials used in our collections.

Authentic Dominican Larimar & Amber

At Mauna Vibes, we proudly source our Larimar and Dominican Amber through trusted miners, artisans, lapidaries, and local suppliers throughout the Dominican Republic.

Our Larimar originates from Barahona, the only known location in the world where this extraordinary blue gemstone is naturally found, while our Dominican Amber is carefully sourced through trusted partners across the country.

Every gemstone is individually selected for its natural beauty, quality, color, and unique character before being handcrafted into jewelry or offered as a collector specimen. Because these are natural materials, no two stones are ever exactly alike, making each Mauna Vibes creation truly one of a kind.

Our Sourcing Standards

We source our gemstones directly from trutsted miners and artisans in the Dominican Republic. Our supply chain is transparent and traceable — we know exactly where each stone comes from and who crafted it into the piece you receive.

  • Direct relationships with Dominican Republic lapidary artisans
  • No synthetic, treated, or imitation stones sold as genuine
  • All Larimar sourced from the Barahona province — the only known source in the world
  • Dominican Amber verified for age, clarity, and origin
  • Metals hallmarked and tested for purity

Certificate of Authenticity

Every eligible Mauna Vibes purchase includes a Mauna Vibes Certificate of Authenticity, certifying that your piece contains genuine natural Larimar, Dominican Amber, or the natural gemstones described in the product listing.

Our certificate reflects our direct sourcing relationships, careful inspection process, and commitment to authenticity.

About Gemological Certification

At present, the Dominican Republic does not have an official gemological laboratory dedicated exclusively to certifying Larimar.

For this reason, many established Dominican Larimar businesses, artisans, and retailers—including Mauna Vibes—provide their own Certificates of Authenticity based on direct sourcing, industry experience, careful inspection, and trusted supplier relationships.

Proof of Origin

Upon request, we are happy to provide available information regarding the origin of your gemstone, including sourcing details and supporting documentation when available.

Because we source directly within the Dominican Republic, we are able to provide customers with greater transparency regarding the origin of many of our materials.

Our Promise 

Our reputation is built on authenticity, transparency, and trust.

We take great pride in offering genuine Dominican gemstones and handcrafted jewelry that reflect the natural beauty and craftsmanship of our island.

If you have any questions about the authenticity, origin, or characteristics of a particular piece, we encourage you to contact us before placing your order. We are always happy to provide additional photographs, information, and available sourcing details whenever possible.
