Marchโs birthstone, aquamarine, ranges from green-blue to pure blue, with richly saturated color among the most prized. This serene gemstone takes its name from the Latin โaqua,โ meaning โwaterโ and โmarina,โ meaning โof the sea,โ and has long been associated with protection for sailors, safe voyages and harmony in marriage.
Aquamarine often appears in impressive sizes with high clarity. With a hardness of 7.5โ8 on the Mohs scale, it is also durable enough for everyday wear. These qualities make it a popular choice for birthstone jewelry and โsomething blueโ wedding jewelry.
Some of the most famous aquamarine jewelry in the world include Queen Elizabeth IIโs Brazilian Aquamarine Tiara and Princess Dianaโs emerald cut aquamarine cocktail ring.
