The serenely colored aquamarine invokes the tranquility of its namesake, the sea. In fact, the name 鈥渁quamarine鈥� is derived from the Latin word聽aqua, meaning water, and聽marina, meaning the sea.

Aquamarine is most often light in tone and ranges from greenish blue to blue-green. The color is usually more intense in larger stones, and darker blue stones are very valuable. This gemstone is mined mainly in Brazil, but it is also found in Nigeria, Madagascar, Zambia, Pakistan, and Mozambique.

Like emeralds, this gemstone is a variety of a mineral called beryl. Large gemstones have been found all over the world, including one gemstone found in Brazil that weighed over 240 pounds. Aquamarine grows in large, six-sided crystals that can be up to a foot long. This makes it a great gemstone to be cut and polished in larger carats for bold statement jewelry pieces.

Not only is aquamarine one of the March birthstones, it鈥檚 also used to celebrate 19th wedding anniversaries. It鈥檚 a beautiful gemstone with little or no yellow in it, so it looks great in many settings with different colored metals and gemstones.
