Home :: Gemstones :: Aquamarine


AQUAMARINE : Meaning 'Sea Water', the name refers to the palish blue, light blue-green or even light green variety of Beryl. The green of Aquamarine is a watery green without any trace of yellow and is due to iron, not chromium, as can be seen from examination with a spectroscope. Rich Blue stones, several carats in weight are among the most valuable of secondary gemstones. From lightest sky-blue to the deep blue of the sea – aquamarines show all these shades of an exceptionally beautiful range of usually light blues. It is a truly fascinating stone. Women all over the world covet it because of its fine blue colour, which suits almost any complexion or eye-colour to perfection, and creative gemstone artists get their inspiration for new cuts more often from aquamarines than from other stones. There is hardly another gemstone, which is equally often used for modern jewellery design in such versatile variety. Clear and transparent in classical steps cut, or as modern fancy cut: Aquamarine is always fascinating and beautiful. Aquamarine’s light colour allows for a special creative freedom for designers to bring out the character and brilliance of a stone by integrating fine fissures and traces, rounded shapes as well as edges. Thus each Aquamarine becomes a unique original, which no woman will be able to resist. The Hindi Name for the gemstones is "BERUJ".
