About Aquamarine – The Ocean’s Gemstone

Aquamarine belongs to the beryl mineral family, sharing its lineage with emerald but distinguished by its gentle blue tones. Its name derives from the Latin words aqua (water) and marina (of the sea), perfectly capturing the gem’s refreshing hues.

Aquamarine stones range from pale blue to deep sea greenish-blue shades. The gem is prized for its excellent clarity, often presenting transparent crystals with few inclusions. With a Mohs hardness of 7.5 to 8, Aquamarine is durable enough for everyday jewelry while maintaining a graceful appearance.

This gemstone has been associated historically with sailors and travelers, believed to protect them on the seas and grant safe passage
